Hi,
I guess the topic says what I'm after.

I have 2 videos with exactly the same length, and I wanted to produce 1 video blending both of them on the top of each other, applying some sort of transparency or something more fancy.

Is there any filter or tool in VirtualDub to do that?

The videos are not long, approx. 1min. So far I'm exporting the frames to images and using ImageMagick to do the trick, but I guess a filter in vDub would make my life way easier.

Thanks!

It can be done by installing Avisynth and then use this (frame server) tool in combination with VirtualDub.
> http://sourceforge.net/projects/avisynth2/.../?source=navbar

You can write scripts for Avisynth (*.AVS) that you can run via VirtualDub.
More info at:
> http://avisynth.org/mediawiki/Main_Page

For the overlay-function : simply make a text file (with Notepad) and write (for exemple) following info into it:

clip1 = AviSource("C:\My videos\video_001.avi")
clip2 = AviSource("C:\My videos\video_002.avi")
Overlay(clip1, clip2, mode="blend", opacity=0.5)

Save this file with (for exemple) the name "Overlay.AVS"

Run this script-file via VirtualDub, by opening it in the same way as you would open a video file, via File > Open video file...

dloneranger posted a video for virtualdub blend-curve editor use which will help using it. Maybe it is a sticky in a forum, or find by searching the forum for the video more likely though dloneranger will post here if still has it or maybe made anew one since the last. After (while) watching dloneranger tutorial video, will soon be using virtualdub blend-curve transition editor
