One trick is to close the project then rename the folder that the source clips are in to effectively “hide” it from Premiere Pro. Next, open your project and offline all clips. This will get you into your project. Now you can online the clips one by one and you will probably find one that will fail. That’s the one that will need to be replaced.
You need to put the clip that you’re going to be scaling and re-positioning into its own sequence. Do the scaling and positioning there, then nest that sequence in the main sequence and apply the track matte.
You will find links to many free tutorials in the PremiereProPedia that will quickly show you how things are done in Premiere Pro.

It’s usually best to use the Adobe Media Encoder unless you really know what you’re doing. However, concerning PAL/NTSC see : FAQ:How do I convert PAL/NTSC?

I think you’re missing the point. Premiere Pro does not control what timecode gets written to tape, however it can tell the tape device to cue the tape to a specific timecode and then start sending data for the tape device to record from that point on.
