Importing photos for a time lapse video at one time

I have like 200 pictures for a time lapse video. If I import all at one time, I can't choose image sequence, meaning all the imported photos are still. If I only import a single picture at one time, I can click the image sequence button, but it's too time-consuming. I'd like to know how to import all pics at one time while the pics are not still.

    I did exactly what you described. I know I need to drag image sequences to the timeline. I need to import all images as sequences first, then drag them to the timeline.

    The problem is how to import image sequences instead of still images at one time, not individually. Can you please show me how you import the rest of photos for time-lapse?

    If the photos are sequentially numbered (0000.jpg, 0001.jpg, 0002.jpg for example) then go to the menu File > Import and navigate to the first image of the sequence and click on it to select it, make sure the check box at the bottom of the navigation pane is checked  for image sequence, and click import.

    Please see below two pictures. All the photos are sequentially numbered, but not starting from 0. Is that ok?

    If I select all images, the check box can't be checked. Only if I select one images, the box can be checked. How can I import all images at one time?
