beat-based duration for still images

It would be great if you could set the duration of a still image to be "1 beat", "2 beats", "4 beats" etc, so that the duration will adjusted dynamically with bpm. That would allow you to use auto-pilot effectively with a set of still image clips in a layer.

If I am missing something and/or there is some other way to make a still image play for the length of a beat, please let me know!

I convert the images to mov-files with 1 frame
then bpm on the transport-mode of the clip to the beats that you want

Not quite like buying butter from the store but an easier work around would be to have a generic short wav file that you can drop onto your images.

you can also try calculating the ms that one beat lasts ;) (makes only sense if you don't switch bpm speed)

btw. would be nice being able to control the image duration via osc!
