    Derp. Just realized you were referring to video. That's what I get for reading like I had 100 cups of coffee.

    If the frames aren't already in a group, select them all, then click the "create a new group" button in the Layers panel (icon looks like a folder).

    Which method did you use? If using the Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, make sure it's above the group folder. (Clipping the adjustment layer is optional if these frames are the only thing in the document.) I believe the second method I mentioned won't work in this case (since I thought we were talking still images here).

    Also make sure that the adjustment layer itself progresses over the frames on the Timeline.

    Could use a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer (clipped to the blue lines). As an alternative, you could also use Image > Adjustments > Replace Color on the menu bar. (For both techniques, pull the Lightness all the way down. For Replace Color, ensure the blue color of the line is selected.)
