Reverting B&W videos back to color

I have a series of color videos in a timeline that were converted to B&W by changing the RGB values evenly to reduce the chroma. I'd like to change all of them back to the original color as a group with one command if possible without having to select each one and convert, thus saving time. Any thoughts on how to do this?

@dougb853 

I'm thinking make a duplicate of the Sequence (append something descriptive to the name like "- restore color"), select all the Clips in the Timeline, and then choose Edit > Remove Attributes.

Hey @dougb853,

Thanks for the question. How did you affect the values? Reset the effect and copy it, then select the other clips and choose Edit > Paste attributes. That should work. Let us know if it does.

 

Thanks,
Kevin
