[FFmpeg-user] Combining xfade and drawtext

[Cecil Westerhof]

I am using xfade and drawtext without problems. But now I want to use
both. But combining the two goes wrong.

I use:
ffmpeg -ss 308 -t 4 -i 00011-00016.MTS -ss 329 -to 374 -i 00011-00016.MTS -pix_fmt yuv420p -vcodec libx264 -crf 26 -acodec libmp3lame -qscale:a 9 -preset veryfast -filter_complex 'xfade=transition=hlslice:duration=4:offset=0;acrossfade=d=4,drawtext=                                box        = 1:                         boxborderw = 6:                         boxcolor   = black at 0.2:                 fontcolor  = white at 0.4:                 fontfile   = FreeSerifBold.ttf:         fontsize   = 32:                        text       = © 2022 Cecil Westerhof - Cecil at Decebal.nl:             x          = ((main_w - text_w) / 2):   y          = main_h - (text_h * 2)    ' xfadeMusicalTestTemp/accordeonmuziek.ts

But this gives:

What am I doing wrong?
