Show Duplicate Frame Markers for Nested Sequences

I work with very long source files which I put into nested sequences before working with them in my timeline. I'm wondering if there's a way to use the Show Duplicate Frame Markers for these sequences in my timeline.

We really need show duplicate frame markers to work with nested seq.

I can't remember exactly, but few years ago, if I remember right, we didn't have that problem.

I agree that this essential missing feature is disrupting the creative process for professional video editors.

Showing duplicated frames is a must-have feature- for all kinds of media - especially for multicam, which is mostly used in interviews and long-form editing. This is exactly when you want to see if you used a shot twice.

I don't understand why they won't fix it for such a long time.

Same here! I edit with nested sequenced and multicams all of the time and for some reason, ADOBE doesn't include duplicated frames in nested sequences - I really cannot comprehend WHY. Please adobe add this basic essential feature to Premiere there is no Logic in excluding duplicated frames for nested sequences or multi-cam clips.
and sorry but flattening multicam is no solution or workaround - when I use multicam I use it for a reason I I don't want to break it just because this essential feature is missing for no logical reason.

That doesn't seem to be possible. Duplicate Frame Markers are either on or off-state. While dupe detection does work on Multicam clips (themselves a type of nest) dupe detection does not work on regular Nests.
