I ran into an issue where I was dragging-dropping ~300 jpegs into the project. Then I'd create a timeline with all 300 jpegs. Most clips on new timeline were the expected 5 seconds, but some were only a single frame
and could not be resized at all.I exported the project to xml to have a peek, sure enough the images having issues were being treated differently.
I found this thread first... but I didn't want to drag-and-drop ~300 photos individually.
...
I then ran across the following thread which had the answer...
https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=31809...Resolve can treat sequentially numbered image files as clips... to avoid that, instead of importing them directly to the project bin, you can import them to the project via the Media Page after selecting the "Show Individual Frames" option in the Media Page (see manual page 300).
(Note, I never have used the media page to date, I typically just drag/drop or menu option import directly to the project. So I'm not aware of some of these nuances.)
After choosing "..." and "Show Individual Frames" in Media Page, I select all photos and drag them to the desired project bin. That apparently imports them the way I'd expect. This differs from other apps I've used that don't have implicit interpretation of sequentially numbered files.
After that way of importing, if I create a timeline with all 300 imported jpegs, each one is 5 seconds, and all can be resized as expected. I was simply unaware of this Resolve nuance so was importing them incorrectly... but it was non-obvious to me until encountering the above mentioned thread.
Just wanted to pass this on in case anyone ran across this thread as I had.
Thanks,
Ashley
