Let's say my main timeline is at 5s when it starts to display a precomposition. This means my precomposition's timeline will be at 5s too.

How can I make it so my precomposition starts play at 0s instead of 5s? I want my precomp to start form the beginning whenever & wherever it appears on the timeline.

This was happening in a friends project. I started a new project and everything worked as I expected! He may have changed some settings that he doesn't remember. Thanks for solutions and I'll close this question out.

To change the starting timecode of a composition press Control + K (CMD + K on a Mac) and change the Comp settings there under "Start Timecode"
