  This question was not an answer to my post, but being the author of the
averager program maybe I could express my opinion?-)
  Common sense says to me that the object which I want to be motion blurred
shouldn't move more than 1 pixel from frame to frame. As far as I have tested,
this gives very good results. Even better results can be achieved by moving
the object less than 1 pixel each frame.
  The total amount of movement is up to what do you want to. More movement
looks like the object is moving faster (more frames, more blurring), and less
movement looks like it's moving slower (less blurring).
  For the image http://iki.fi/warp/pics/Takeoff.jpg I calculated 40 frames
(man, it was slow with my 486 66MHz!).
