I was recently trying to import an image into Avid and I found that it was making a clip that contained 6 images. The worst thing was that the clip was only 6 frames long and contained all 6 images. So, when you played the clip through, you watched six images pass the screen so fast you could not see any images but the last one. I tried different ways of importing the file but still ended up with the same results. I then remembered an import setting called Auto-Detect Sequential Files. What this does is selects sequential files and presents it in an automatic sequence. This can tend to be a problem instead of a help, so I recommend turning this option off. When this option is deselected, the system does not automatically import a whole sequence of files that have sequential extensions. You can then select any single file for import.
