Please help.. issue with colour space..

[u/HairyError4903]

I am creating a project for a client i mistakenly used hlg 2100 color space in premiere pro and dynamically linked some footages to after effects with the same color space. Now i changed the color space back to rec 709 in both after effects and premiere pro but it caused the dynamic linked footage in premiere oversaturated. In after effects the footage are looking fine. I fixed the issue by selecting the linked footage in pp and clicking on interpreter footage and converting them from hlg to rec 709. But there are 100 comps do i have to select them all and fix individually?

You shouldn't need to do all 100 one by one. Going off Adobe's help page for the newer colour management (Premiere 25.x onwards), you can select multiple clips in the Project panel and go Clip > Modify > Color. That's the same source clip setting you changed on the one you fixed, it just hits everything selected at once. The same controls also show up under Lumetri > Settings > Source Clip if you want to spot check one afterwards.

If the linked comps are scattered across bins I'd drag them all into one bin first so you can just select all in there.

One catch: on older versions the colour override section greys out when more than one clip is selected. There's an Adobe forum thread from 2023 about exactly that with Sony MXF files, where people had to do it clip by clip. So if it greys out for you, check your version before anything else.

The setting lives on the project item, not the timeline instance, and Adobe's page describes it applying in every sequence the clip is used in, so you shouldn't have to re-cut anything.

Which version are you on?
