transitions and highliting a person in a clip

I am trying to make a sports video and need to do 2 things:
1 - I want a transition between the clips but all of the transitions
actually use part of the clip. I can not afford to have any of the clip
reboved or corruptted. Is there a way to add a transition without interfering
with the clip?

2 - I want to put a marker on a player before the play starts so they are
easily identified, how do I do that with Movie Maker 2.1?

Thank You!

=============================
Maybe you could make a screen shot of
the last frame of the first clip and the first
frame of the next clip and insert them
between the clips. Then insert the transition
between the screenshots.

Maybe Pixelan's Border/Frame Effects
Pack E3 would be useful:

And maybe the following links will be useful:

about the transition without trimming any of the clips... take a snapshot
and splt the clip at the point you want the transition. The snapshot will be
a freeze-frame. Put the snapshot into the timeline twice and do your
transition between the two snapshots.

so the video will flow to the freeze-frame, followed by the transition, then
back to the same freeze-frame to contine on with the video.

A transition between two copies of
the same image won't do anything.

that depends on the transition.... you're right for a simple fade or
dissolve and many of them

but action ones like the standard Flip and Page Curl transitions would work
fine, along with many or most of the 3rd party transitions like the Adorage
skeleton walking across.

Okay, but I still think two different images
as I described in my original reply would
be more interesting.
