Why do frames display instead of timecode?
I’ve been using Premiere Pro for about ten years. Recently everything I import displays frames instead of timecode and I have to modify the clips to fix. Frame rate doesn’t affect it as I import mostly 29.97pfs or 59.94fps. These are either mxf files or mov ProRes LT. In Premiere Media Preferences I’m set to 29.97df, timecode is set to “start at 00:00:00:00, I changed it to “Use Media Source” but that made no difference) and set to “timecode conversion. I typically use Prelude to offload footage and I don’t transcode. However, sometimes I just copy the mxf files directly and then import. No difference in terms of my issue. Any help would be appreciated.

It might be that in when you create a new sequence FRAMES was selected.

looks like you might have to hit DOWNLOAD to see the images i loaded.

Did you figure it out ?

Timebase might have set to frames when you have an odd framerate

I don’t work with Premire but… If you use a “:” before your last two digits in the start time, it’s NOT drop frame. 29:97 fps and 59:94 fps are drop frame. Try using a “;”
It may be that

Sorry for not answering. I’ve just switched to a new system and wasn’t receiving notifications. It seems the new system with Premiere updated solved. Thanks:)
