Hey everyone...

I am trying to make a little video of a bunch of pictures from a recent trip of mine (honeymoon to Ireland!)..

Anyways, I'm browsing to the directory that they are sitting in and I select the first and then scroll down while hitting "Shift" to select a bunch of picture (I'd say around 50 or so?).. I click the "ok" or whatever it is labeled to import them and I see the pictures being dropped into their slots on the right side.. The status bar moves across and then once they are all imported, they all disappear!

If I import a batch of 10 or so at a time, things work fine... Anyone have any idea why it won't allow me to import these? Is there a limit to the amount of "clips" that I can store at a given time? Any help would be great.. Thanks!

Going one by one through the batch of JPGs, I found two that were "bad" (ie: 0kb).. I removed them and we were good to go...
