Slideshow image problems
Using DaVinci Resolve 15 free version.
Trying to make a 70 picture video slideshow with music from all .jpg format files.
Notice that the .jpg files when imported into the media pool, turned into three types, no. 1 was images with a red bar at the bottom of the picture, no. 2 was a timeline file with a white cinderblock shaped icon at the bottom left corner and a red triangle with a tick mark inside it on the top right hand corner and no. 3 was an image without the red bar at the bottom.
The type no. 1 was successfully transferred to the Video 1 timeline, the type no. 2 could not be transferred to the Video 1 timeline with a round “stop” icon appearing, the type no. 3 image shrunk when unsuccessfully transferring to the Video 1 timeline with a blue vertical bar appearing on the left of the image.
What went wrong?
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks. -

JPGs will work, but they’re not an ideal file format for Resolve. The added compression will not help, either.
I think you’re better off with TIFF or DPX files. If you can batch-convert all your stills to this format, I think it will work better.

Thank you very much for your advice. I did a batch conversion to TIFF files using XnConvert and was able to make the slideshow video without any file problems using TIFF files.
Thank you very much once again.
