Catalyst Prepare plugin converts 50p media to 25p

Wow, even more issues with Catalyst Prepare plugin!

I was wondering why playback of my 50p footage was shuttering like its 25p.

Then I rendered proxies and stuttering was gone.

Then I found out that the Catalyst prepare plugin is not active for proxy media.

So i removed the plugin.

Now media plays back in 50p again. 

Very strange, did anyone find a fix?

Its NOT a performance problem, although performance is compromised as well with the plugin.

It just drops 50 percent of the frames and even worse: its the same on export!

Thats horrible, even when I disable the effect in the source browser the footage still stays 25p. The only way to get around it is to remove the plugin an confirm the error message at startup for missing plugins, so I can continue my work. I hope this doesnt cause issues in the end..

Is there anyone with the same problem or a solution? Is this a known bug?
