Timecode innacuracies

Hi, I am trying to create a sequence(1080p30 ProRes LT) that starts at 00;59;00;00 but it always defaults to 00;59;00;02

Anyone know of a workaround?

There is no timecode number 00:59:00:00 in Drop Frame code. It only exists in Non-Drop Timecode

If they are asking you to start the sequence at 59 minutes to allow, for example, 30 seconds color bars, 10 seconds slate, 8 seconds countdown and 2 seconds black with program starting at 1:00:00:00 - then do as you were doing.

Set your sequence time code to Non-Drop Frame timecode.

The deliverable is supposed to be Drop Frame.
