Hey,
The problem is this: when you import an .EXR sequence, the sequence jumps to the point in the timeline where the first frame is located. So if the first frame is xxx_1001.exr, the sequence starts playing from frame 1001. In QuickTime, the first frame is always 1.
The script does two things: First, it loads the file from the Write node into the project, and then it sets the time offset of the start frame to match the setting in the project settings. For example, if your project starts at 1001, QuickTime will also play starting from frame 1001.
Copy the script into menu.py and adjust the menu name and hotkey in the lower section.
