Renders the wrong portion of the video

I just recently subscribed to Premiere Pro CC and I am having issues. I am sure I am doing something wrong. I have been editing still photos for years, but just recently got into video after I got a drone for Christmas. I am editing footage from a phantom 4 Pro. I am editing in 4K  4096X2160 59.94fps The video is very choppy, so I created proxies, that seemed to work well, but the video renders to a different timecode than I chose. I am sure it has to do with the frame rates, I am so confused. I shot in slow motion, but I don't want all of it to be in slowmo. For example in the upper left panel in the editing tab, where I choose my in and out points, the playhead only goes about half the timeline.

This will do what I want, cause if I use the original footage @1/16 quality, I can choose the right in and out points, and render that and it is what I want, to include the time remapping. It's just dang near impossible to work with from all the stutters and jitters.

Thanks for any help on this, I have tried making cuneiform proxies and I get the same thing.

    What frame-rate does PrPro "see" for that media, what is the frame-rate of the sequence, and ... I would add that the proxies don't work too well with time-remapped clips.

    PrPro saw them as 23.976, since I was using proxies....the timing was off. I saw a you tube video about mixing frame rates and one of the things it said to do was to have Prpro interpret all the footage as the frame rate you wanted to export at. So I had it assume the footage was 23.976.

    i built the proxies at 58.94 and kept that as my sequence frame rate and it worked.

    There is a way to get proxies at a remapped time ... select the clips, tell it to create proxies, then as soon as Media Encoder starts, pause it. Replace the preset it wants to apply with one set for the proper speed. That will take care of all but the first clip. That one you need to delete and create manually.

    Easier to do after a couple practice runs than it sounds

    Thank you, but I don't think I understand. I am using custom presets to create the proxies in the first place.

    Here is my scenario, I want a 23.976fps sequence. I have some footage at 23.976 and some at 59.94. I want to be able to drop the 59.94 in the sequence and have Prpro assume it is 23.976, so it would play as slowmo. But I don't want the whole clip slowmo, I want to ramp some of it up to 250%. I need the files to be proxies so I can actually see what it is I am editing.

    I have some prores422 presets set up for 59.94 and 23.976. How should I go about creating these proxies? I am in Prpro and I select the clips and tell it to create proxies and select my preset based on the fps of the clip.

    How should I alter this to be doing it where I can preview the video.

    The issue comes when I put the proxy clip in the previewer. The proxy clip will only run to 5:27:09, but the 23.976 assumption wants the clip to be 13:37:21.

    So in this situation....what is the proper preset?
