I have faced the same issue. Worked perfectly so far, but SUDDENTLY – without any action or changing something – the render starts every time at Frame0, regardless where i set my render range.

really annoying. I finally found the appropriate Setting under

Bearbeiten->Vorlage->Ausgabemodul || Einstellungen->Bearbeiten-> [x] Kompositions-Framenummer verwenden.

….since i am from Germany (and have the German Version of After Effects) i SUGGEST the above path in the english Version is something like:

Edit->Templates->Outputmodules || Settings->Edit [X] use comp. Framenumber

i have attached a screenshot where you can see where this setting is.

(Version: After Effects CC)

good luck 🙂
