Yellow render bar over transcoded video when it shouldn't be

Question

Hi,

Bunch of clips, all transcoded in the exact same codec (1080x1920 ProResHQ 2398), pull them into the timeline and some of them are yellow needed to be rendered, and it's not a slow render. Thinking it was audio so as a test I muted it and also deleted, still yellow.

Is this a bug in Version 24.3.0 (Build 59), or media encoder (Version 24.3 (Build 49))or am I just being an idiot overlooking something?

Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration:

yellow: The source media’s codec is computationally difficult (such as AVCHD). As mentioned above, only very few simple codecs don’t get a yellow bar; these include DV and DVCPRO.
yellow: The settings of the clip (e.g., pixel aspect ratio, frame rate, field settings) don’t match the settings for the sequence.
yellow: A CUDA-accelerated video effect or transition has been applied to the clip. (A CUDA-accelerated video transition only causes a yellow bar over the duration of the transition.)
