Default Re: negative feet.frames offset? is it even possible?

We're doing music editing and production services for a major feature film. Full orchestra recorded to three Studer 2" 24 track machines, locked up to house sync via MicroLynx. Mixed down to surround and LCR stems via SSL to ProTools HD, and will be re-recorded to MMR8's, again locked up to house sync via MicroLynx. The Lynx's are good, but I have noticed that it takes 5-8 seconds for the PT rig to lock up once we're rolling. I would rather have a safe margin of error than hold up the stage.

It's probably not as big a deal to edit the QT's to the hour marker, but it's one less thing I'd like to deal with (read: tie up computer with menial processing tasks) before heading up to the dub stage next week--400 miles away.

I see that they have indeed fixed the feet/frames offset issue in 6.4, thanks for the info. Maybe in the next upgrade cycle I'll convince our company to take the plunge into OS X.
