Hi everyone.  
I have a BFX segment on the timeline. I need to extend it into the heads of the shot. I move the start of the shot back 12 frames into the handles and some of the elements in the scene disappear. They come back on when I reach the original start frame. I have the media set to Repeat on First and Last and extended the bar on the timing menu in BFX back the 12 frames.  
Is this a common problem?

Thanks,  
Andrew

This turned out to be a keyframe in the priority editor set at frame one. When I moved the start point back into the heads of the shot, for some reason priority changed. I copied and pasted the keyframe to the new frame 1 and that fixed it.
