Jpeg not showing up in premiere pro sequence?

I'm working on a project that requires video and still images, and the video clips are all working fine. However, when I place any .jpeg photos into the sequence, they only show up as black rectangles. I've tried restarting the program and nothing changed. Is there any way to fix this?

I solved my problem by converting all my jpeg files to png files.

I converted my JPEGS to .png and made sure it was RBG, but my PNG files are still not showing up.

I did the same and it's not showing up. If Adobe has changed Premiere so that users can't upload images into their timelines, then we have a big problem.

Nevermind. I opened up a new sequence and that fixed it. It was an older project so I'm guessing something got corrupted.

I tried converting my .jpg files to .png and i still had no luck. I found that my renderer was set to "OpenCL" instead of "Metal". When I changed it to "metal" my picture was visible again. To change the setting go to File>Project Settings>General and there are drop down options for the renderer. Don't know if this helps anyone else, but it worked for me

I had to change it away from metal to "software only" but essentially this worked!

After 20 solid minutes of converting the image to every possible format, color mode and size, even tried taking a screenshot, just noticed I had the layer hidden, so please guys check on those little things! Oh god! 🙂 Have a nice day everyone!

All of a sudden I am having the same problem.  jpg thumbnails show up as grayed out in the bin in Premiere Pro.

Turning off the GPU fixes the problem but that is not ideal.

If I right click on the grayed out thumbnail and select  Modify > Interpret footage and select color override and select color space override and set it to sRGB the thumbnail appears. Unfortunately, I can only convert one photo at a time.

The initial color space of the grayed out imported jpg was sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (this was generated from an export from Photoshop 23.3.0). 

If I do a save as for a jpg from Photoshop and do not specify a color profile the thumbnail appears in Premiere Pro.

I am using Premiere Pro version 22.2.0 build 128 on Windows 11 with an Nvidia 2080 GPU version 512-15.
