Default Making Session Start/Bar 1 later in Video

Hi

I was wondering how to make the session start/Bar 1 later in a imported video?

For example, I import a video, first frame of the video is 09:59:00:00 and my sessions is synced up with session start also 09:59:00:00. When I hit play and check throughout the SMPTE is lined up.

But what I now want to do is make my bar 1 later in the video say SMPTE 10:30:00:00. But I also want my session start at Bar 1 so there are no minus bars in my session.

So I can start writing music from the start of my session and it will be later in the video, not at the start of the video?

For example, for those of you that have logic. I import a video in Logic and sync the video in the movie tab, so that the timecode matches in logic with the timecode burn in the video.

Then I can make logic start later in the video by going to the Synchronisation tab and setting bar 1 to a later SMPTE time that I want the session to start at.

Can I do something similar in Pro-Tools?
