Yes, FM 5.0/5.1 didn't support JPEG files. See:

You really need to get a more modern version of FM.
If you're looking into making captures of software windows,
you should not use JPEG format anyway. It's a lossy format
with possible problems for sharp-edge pictures. JPEG was
made for photographic and "realistic" images.

Use GIF or TIFF instead. GIF is limited to 256 colors,
and there are many variations of the TIFF format. Each
of them have their problems in FM 5.0/5.1.
