Inserting an image equal to time of vid

OK.
General question.
I need to insert the station ID name in the lower right-hand screen. I need to insert the station ID image for 10 seconds every 2 minutes equally spaced to the time of the show, keeping in mind that each show varies in the length of time. I thought there was a function that would atomically place the image on a timeline spaced proportionally to the time of the show or the time of two markers.
Suggestions?
Maybe a script out there somewhere the would perform this function?
-thanks

Excalibur's Marker Wizard will place markers at specified intervals.

From there, it's just a matter of Ctrl/arrow to the next marker and Paste.

Try this:

1. Place the bug on the top track and position it where you want using track motion.
2. Set the duration of the bug event to 10 seconds (don’t forget to adjust fade in and out if you want it to smoothly appear and disappear)
3. Use Ctrl+X to cut the event to the clipboard
4. Use Paste Repeat... (Ctrl+B)
5. Adjust the Number of times to paste and select Evenly Spaced and adjust the time interval to 2 minutes.

This should give you a bug for 10 seconds every 2 minutes
