+
+# Using images in Remotion
+
+## The `<Img>` component
+
+Always use the `<Img>` component from `remotion` to display images:
+
+```tsx
+import { Img, staticFile } from "remotion";
+
+export const MyComposition = () => {
+  return <Img src={staticFile("photo.png")} />;
+};
+```
+
+## Important restrictions
+
+**You MUST use the `<Img>` component from `remotion`.** Do not use:
+
+- Native HTML `<img>` elements
+- Next.js `<Image>` component
+- CSS `background-image`
+
+The `<Img>` component ensures images are fully loaded before rendering, preventing flickering and blank frames during video export.
+
+## Local images with staticFile()
+
+Place images in the `public/` folder and use `staticFile()` to reference them:
+
+```
+my-video/
+├─ public/
+│  ├─ logo.png
+│  ├─ avatar.jpg
+│  └─ icon.svg
+├─ src/
+├─ package.json
+```
+
+```tsx
+import { Img, staticFile } from "remotion";
+
+<Img src={staticFile("logo.png")} />
+```
+
+## Remote images
+
+Remote URLs can be used directly without `staticFile()`:
+
+```tsx
+<Img src="https://example.com/image.png" />
+```
+
+Ensure remote images have CORS enabled.
+
+For animated GIFs, use the `<Gif>` component from `@remotion/gif` instead.
+
+## Sizing and positioning
+
+Use the `style` prop to control size and position:
+
+```tsx
+<Img
+  src={staticFile("photo.png")}
+  style={{
+    width: 500,
+    height: 300,
+    position: "absolute",
+    top: 100,
+    left: 50,
+    objectFit: "cover",
+  }}
+/>
+```
+
+## Dynamic image paths
+
+Use template literals for dynamic file references:
+
+```tsx
+import { Img, staticFile, useCurrentFrame } from "remotion";
+
+const frame = useCurrentFrame();
+
+// Image sequence
+<Img src={staticFile(`frames/frame${frame}.png`)} />
+
+// Selecting based on props
+<Img src={staticFile(`avatars/${props.userId}.png`)} />
+
+// Conditional images
+<Img src={staticFile(`icons/${isActive ? "active" : "inactive"}.svg`)} />
+```
+
+This pattern is useful for:
+
+- Image sequences (frame-by-frame animations)
+- User-specific avatars or profile images
+- Theme-based icons
+- State-dependent graphics
+
+## Getting image dimensions
+
+Use `getImageDimensions()` to get the dimensions of an image:
+
+```tsx
+import { getImageDimensions, staticFile } from "remotion";
+
+const { width, height } = await getImageDimensions(staticFile("photo.png"));
+```
+
+This is useful for calculating aspect ratios or sizing compositions:
+
+```tsx
+import { getImageDimensions, staticFile, CalculateMetadataFunction } from "remotion";
+
+const calculateMetadata: CalculateMetadataFunction = async () => {
+  const { width, height } = await getImageDimensions(staticFile("photo.png"));
+  return {
+    width,
+    height,
+  };
+};
+```

+
+# Importing .srt subtitles into Remotion
+
+If you have an existing `.srt` subtitle file, you can import it into Remotion using `parseSrt()` from `@remotion/captions`.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+First, the @remotion/captions package needs to be installed.
+If it is not installed, use the following command:
+
+```bash
+npx remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses npm
+bunx remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses bun
+yarn remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses yarn
+pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/captions # If project uses pnpm
+```
+
+## Reading an .srt file
+
+Use `staticFile()` to reference an `.srt` file in your `public` folder, then fetch and parse it:
+
+```tsx
+import {useState, useEffect, useCallback} from 'react';
+import {AbsoluteFill, staticFile, useDelayRender} from 'remotion';
+import {parseSrt} from '@remotion/captions';
+import type {Caption} from '@remotion/captions';
+
+export const MyComponent: React.FC = () => {
+  const [captions, setCaptions] = useState<Caption[] | null>(null);
+  const {delayRender, continueRender, cancelRender} = useDelayRender();
+  const [handle] = useState(() => delayRender());
+
+  const fetchCaptions = useCallback(async () => {
+    try {
+      const response = await fetch(staticFile('subtitles.srt'));
+      const text = await response.text();
+      const {captions: parsed} = parseSrt({input: text});
+      setCaptions(parsed);
+      continueRender(handle);
+    } catch (e) {
+      cancelRender(e);
+    }
+  }, [continueRender, cancelRender, handle]);
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    fetchCaptions();
+  }, [fetchCaptions]);
+
+  if (!captions) {
+    return null;
+  }
+
+  return <AbsoluteFill>{/* Use captions here */}</AbsoluteFill>;
+};
+```
+
+Remote URLs are also supported - you can `fetch()` a remote file via URL instead of using `staticFile()`.
+
+## Using imported captions
+
+Once parsed, the captions are in the `Caption` format and can be used with all `@remotion/captions` utilities.

+
+## Displaying a Lottie file
+
+To import a Lottie animation:
+
+- Fetch the Lottie asset
+- Wrap the loading process in `delayRender()` and `continueRender()`
+- Save the animation data in a state
+- Render the Lottie animation using the `Lottie` component from the `@remotion/lottie` package
+
+```tsx
+import {Lottie, LottieAnimationData} from '@remotion/lottie';
+import {useEffect, useState} from 'react';
+import {cancelRender, continueRender, delayRender} from 'remotion';

+
+## Styling and animating
+
+Lottie supports the `style` prop to allow styles and animations:
+
+```tsx
+return <Lottie animationData={animationData} style={{width: 400, height: 400}} />;
+```

+# Measuring DOM nodes in Remotion
+
+Remotion applies a `scale()` transform to the video container, which affects values from `getBoundingClientRect()`. Use `useCurrentScale()` to get correct measurements.
+
+## Measuring element dimensions
+
+```tsx
+import { useCurrentScale } from "remotion";
+import { useRef, useEffect, useState } from "react";
+
+export const MyComponent = () => {
+  const ref = useRef<HTMLDivElement>(null);
+  const scale = useCurrentScale();

+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    if (!ref.current) return;
+    const rect = ref.current.getBoundingClientRect();
+    setDimensions({
+      width: rect.width / scale,
+      height: rect.height / scale,

+  }, [scale]);

+# Measuring text in Remotion
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Install @remotion/layout-utils if it is not already installed:
+
+```bash
+npx remotion add @remotion/layout-utils # If project uses npm
+bunx remotion add @remotion/layout-utils # If project uses bun
+yarn remotion add @remotion/layout-utils # If project uses yarn
+pnpm exec remotion add @remotion/layout-utils # If project uses pnpm
+```
+
+## Measuring text dimensions
+
+Use `measureText()` to calculate the width and height of text:
+
+```tsx
+import { measureText } from "@remotion/layout-utils";
+
+const { width, height } = measureText({
+  text: "Hello World",
+  fontFamily: "Arial",
+  fontSize: 32,
+  fontWeight: "bold",
+});
+```
+
+Results are cached - duplicate calls return the cached result.
+
+## Fitting text to a width
+
+Use `fitText()` to find the optimal font size for a container:
+
+```tsx
+import { fitText } from "@remotion/layout-utils";
+
+const { fontSize } = fitText({
+  text: "Hello World",
+  withinWidth: 600,
+  fontFamily: "Inter",
+  fontWeight: "bold",
+});
+
+return (
+  <div
+    style={{
+      fontSize: Math.min(fontSize, 80), // Cap at 80px
+      fontFamily: "Inter",
+      fontWeight: "bold",
+    }}
+  >
+    Hello World
+  </div>
+);
+```
+
+## Checking text overflow
+
+Use `fillTextBox()` to check if text exceeds a box:
+
+```tsx
+import { fillTextBox } from "@remotion/layout-utils";
+
+const box = fillTextBox({ maxBoxWidth: 400, maxLines: 3 });
+
+const words = ["Hello", "World", "This", "is", "a", "test"];
+for (const word of words) {
+  const { exceedsBox } = box.add({
+    text: word + " ",
+    fontFamily: "Arial",
+    fontSize: 24,
+  });
+  if (exceedsBox) {
+    // Text would overflow, handle accordingly
+    break;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Best practices
+
+**Load fonts first:** Only call measurement functions after fonts are loaded.
+
+```tsx
+import { loadFont } from "@remotion/google-fonts/Inter";
+
+const { fontFamily, waitUntilDone } = loadFont("normal", {
+  weights: ["400"],
+  subsets: ["latin"],
+});
+
+waitUntilDone().then(() => {
+  // Now safe to measure
+  const { width } = measureText({
+    text: "Hello",
+    fontFamily,
+    fontSize: 32,
+  });
+})
+```
+
+**Use validateFontIsLoaded:** Catch font loading issues early:
+
+```tsx
+measureText({
+  text: "Hello",
+  fontFamily: "MyCustomFont",
+  fontSize: 32,
+  validateFontIsLoaded: true, // Throws if font not loaded
+});
+```
+
+**Match font properties:** Use the same properties for measurement and rendering:
+
+```tsx
+const fontStyle = {
+  fontFamily: "Inter",
+  fontSize: 32,
+  fontWeight: "bold" as const,
+  letterSpacing: "0.5px",
+};
+
+const { width } = measureText({
+  text: "Hello",
+  ...fontStyle,
+});
+
+return <div style={fontStyle}>Hello</div>;
+```
+
+**Avoid padding and border:** Use `outline` instead of `border` to prevent layout differences:
+
+```tsx
+<div style={{ outline: "2px solid red" }}>Text</div>
+```

+name: sequencing
+description: Sequencing patterns for Remotion - delay, trim, limit duration of items
+metadata:
+  tags: sequence, series, timing, delay, trim
+---
+
+Use `<Sequence>` to delay when an element appears in the timeline.
+
+```tsx
+import { Sequence } from "remotion";
+
+const {fps} = useVideoConfig();
+
+<Sequence from={1 * fps} durationInFrames={2 * fps} premountFor={1 * fps}>
+  <Title />
+</Sequence>
+<Sequence from={2 * fps} durationInFrames={2 * fps} premountFor={1 * fps}>
+  <Subtitle />
+</Sequence>
+```
+
+This will by default wrap the component in an absolute fill element.  
+If the items should not be wrapped, use the `layout` prop:
+
+```tsx
+<Sequence layout="none">
+  <Title />
+</Sequence>
+```
+
+## Premounting
+
+This loads the component in the timeline before it is actually played.  
+Always premount any `<Sequence>`!
+
+```tsx
+<Sequence premountFor={1 * fps}>
+  <Title />
+</Sequence>
+```
+
+## Series
+
+Use `<Series>` when elements should play one after another without overlap.
+
+```tsx
+import {Series} from 'remotion';
+
+<Series>
+  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={45}>
+    <Intro />
+  </Series.Sequence>
+  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={60}>
+    <MainContent />
+  </Series.Sequence>
+  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={30}>
+    <Outro />
+  </Series.Sequence>
+</Series>;
+```
+
+Same as with `<Sequence>`, the items will be wrapped in an absolute fill element by default when using `<Series.Sequence>`, unless the `layout` prop is set to `none`.
+
+### Series with overlaps
+
+Use negative offset for overlapping sequences:
+
+```tsx
+<Series>
+  <Series.Sequence durationInFrames={60}>
+    <SceneA />
+  </Series.Sequence>
+  <Series.Sequence offset={-15} durationInFrames={60}>
+    {/* Starts 15 frames before SceneA ends */}
+    <SceneB />
+  </Series.Sequence>
+</Series>
+```
+
+## Frame References Inside Sequences
+
+Inside a Sequence, `useCurrentFrame()` returns the local frame (starting from 0):
+
+```tsx
+<Sequence from={60} durationInFrames={30}>
+  <MyComponent />
+  {/* Inside MyComponent, useCurrentFrame() returns 0-29, not 60-89 */}
+</Sequence>
+```
+
+## Nested Sequences
+
+Sequences can be nested for complex timing:
+
+```tsx
+<Sequence from={0} durationInFrames={120}>
+  <Background />
+  <Sequence from={15} durationInFrames={90} layout="none">
+    <Title />
+  </Sequence>
+  <Sequence from={45} durationInFrames={60} layout="none">
+    <Subtitle />
+  </Sequence>
+</Sequence>
+```

+
+## Typewriter Effect
+
+See [Typewriter](assets/text-animations-typewriter.tsx) for an advanced example with a blinking cursor and a pause after the first sentence.
