I've been messing with this quite a bit as it gives a quick route for my students to link to graphics. It does work but you'll probably find that using Source Settings, Frameflex does not report the colour levels correctly with JPEGs. Best to ignore the reported setting and take a look at the histogram. Also, rotating using Frameflex in the Effect Editor is difficult as you are faced with a rotating wireframe, a bit like Pan and Zoom. When you leave effect mode, the rotation can be seen in the Timeline. A not-completely-finished solution, I think.

There's not a lot of documentation out there for using linked media/FrameFlex with stills (or even anecdotal reports) but you might want to check a few things and let us know what you find.
1) Does it handle color space correctly? I'm guessing no, but it's probably workable with color correction.2) What happens if the images get moved or unlinked? Can they be relinked easily?3) Is the higher resolution truly maintained on sequence transcodes? On export? Need to render first?4) Any weird issues using shared storage? (ISIS, Unity, Terrblock)I don't know anyone who actually has used it for stills other than playing around. It seems that now that there is rotation available, it would be a good native solution other than the horror show that is Avid Pan and Zoom.

I'm linking to a bunch of jpegs, and it seems that they work fine with FrameFlex.So do I no longer need Moving Picture for simple zoom and rotate of photos?Irving, TX.Curtis NicholsPCS Production Co.
