New after effects script to create render comps

in

I currently do some compositing work for the short film Bordercrossing. I took over from another compositor who did a couple of shots that the director and editor now want me to make some changes to. Some of those shots are very long compositions and I was asked to make changes to only some fragments of them and render those out. Since I found myself repeatedly creating new compositions that contained the big master comp as it's only layer but only the working area time fragment of it, I decided to write a small script to do this. You can find it attached or on aenhancers.com

Create render comp - inconsistent results?

Hi Daniel,
I'm getting inconsistent results using your script. I actually got one render comp the size of my work area, rendered movie proved it worked, hooray!
But usually I'm getting it from the beginning of the timeline, not just the work area.
I tried selecting the layer, selecting the comp in the project bin, putting the CTI on the first frame of the work area, etc.... somehow keep getting 1.06 seconds from the start, though.
Any clue as to what I'm doing wrong?
