    Frame Import Duration

    Posted by Avi Lev on February 12, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    I imported a TRGA file into the project, but I’m not sure why it is no more than one frame.
    The Frame Import Duration window is set for 30 seconds.
    What am I doing wrong?

    You have set the checkbox to imort sequential frames.
    (Or whatever it is called, not behind my avid).
    So now you got a movie of just one frame.

    Deselect it, and you’ll be fine.

    Thanks Bouke,
    I guess you mean Autodetect Sequentially-Numbered Files. I checked it but still it imports duration of 0;02.
    However, when I’m importing other graphic files as .jpg the duration is as set- 30;00

    You probably mean: ÜNchecked it..

    In this case, probably Avid is seeing the file as video, not as a still.
    Save the file in another format and you’ll be golden, or just make a (two frame) freeze.
