Default Session start TC

Can I move the session start time to a particular point in the movie? I am using the non HD version of PT 2018.7 and the session start dialog doesn't to be able to do it.

you set the TC in the Session Setup Window to what you would like for the movie, and it is NOT working ???

Yes. The whole session starts playing with a new TC but the movie still plays from its start.

Can you use SPOT and move the movie to where you want it to start?

IT is the other way around. I want session to start at a particular point in the movie.

I need to build a particular Cue for the Movie at say 01:10:15:20F. I would like to make the session start at that given point in the movie.

1) you would need to edit the video to start where you wish .. then spot it again and your session should be fine ..

2) or change the start time to Hour 1, at the Place you want the video to begin in pro tools .. have to figure the offset ..

3) and you cannot have half the movie hiding to the left of the starting point if that is what you mean ...

i hope one of these is on track ...

That is precisely one of few reasons I still compose in Digital Performer :). Doing this is a breeze over here. This is simply not practical for my purposes.

You can keep the session hour the same as the reel and move the "song start" or Bar 1 to whatever timecode you want. Just go to the frame you want and use the Event menu to do this. You can just ignore the space (or negative bars) beforehand. This is how we record cues on the scoring stage.

If you really want to have the session setup start at B1, click on the frame you want in the picture and hit the "a" key in command focus to lop off the front. Then set session start accordingly. Seems extraneous though.
