You could do it with avisynth i guess. Use Imageloader to load your image, then create a black video, and fade the black video over the image. Then you could load these scripts into virtualdub and batch encode them.
The main issue would be the actual creating of all the avisynth scripts. Maybe you could write a simple program to generate them from the filenames or something.
Another way might be to import them into After Effects and stack them one right after the other (there is some built in function that does this for you, i forget exactly how to access it), then apply a preset to all of the clips to fade in and out. Now export it all as a single AVI. The images would all import at the same length, so you have a linear frame offset to each one. The trick would then be finding something that could split that file at every X frames.
