Well it's really not too surprising and ASDG has pretty much stopped all Amiga 
development. I believe they were bought up by Avid about a year ago. So I 
think we can pretty much forget about any updates to ADPro.

However, if you're willing to make a switch, I believe ImageFX 2.1a will 
handle those JPEG variations just fine. I know it handles the PICT variation 
with embedded JPEG's with no problems. If you would like, send me one of your 
pictures via UUencoded Email and I'll give it a try.
