Short YouTube video shows the problem: https://youtu.be/aYsIP36vuWA

As the video states: in the Timeline, my entire project is labeled by color. When I single click a video file in the Project Panel, the color of many of the clips in the Timeline revert to default.

This just started happening mid-project, and I have no idea why.

Which clips revert to default? A bunch of random ones, it seems.

The more I click around in the Project Panel, the more clips in the Timeline revert to default color. What's going on!?!?

Premiere is up to date: 22.6.0

Error or problem

Hey Bruno, sorry to see you're facing the same issue! If it's not too much of a hassle, try resetting your preferences then re-labeling your clip colors.

Reset preferences is our go-to when Premiere is behaving strangely like this. Let us know if the labels start working correctly again.

hey caroline this is still happening in 2025 premieres newest update, i have had this problem tons of times and i have seen dozens of posts about this happening online. can we please get a fix for this big at some point instead of having to go through the nifty process of resetting preferences.

Hi Oscar! Let's dig a little deeper to see if we can figure out what's causing this. Just to make sure I'm understanding – resetting preferences does fix the problem, but the issue with labels keeps coming back?

Do you have any customizations like third-party plugins? Did you go into Premiere Pro Preferences to customize the label colors? You can see label preferences by going to Premiere Pro>Settings>Labels (on Mac) or Edit>Preferences>Labels (on PC)

Let us know,

Caroline

There's a different behavior you may not have caught ... in the Timeline panel, the wrench icon for Timeline panel settings ... at the top, is an option to "Show source clip and label" ... and if that is checked, the timeline color labels will reflect the Source/Project panel for the clips.

So ... uncheck that option, as I think that may be the cause of your troubles.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...

Thank you for the response! However, that is not solving my problem. That box was already unchecked. So I experimented with toggling the box on/off. Ticking the box returned all the clips to default color (as expected), but when I unticked the box, all the colors did not return to how I labeled them in the Timeline...only a couple of video clips did. Weird...

Here's another short YouTube video showing what I explain above: https://youtu.be/Gq_wM9bwP5g
