Hello,
I'm not sure if this is a stupid question but i've been looking for a solution to this for a while now. My current situation goes as follows: Lets say I make an adjustment clip, if duplicated on the timeline, all work independently from each other; For example, lets say I make some type of color correction to an adjustment clip and copy it in various places on the timeline, but later want to a change the color correction for every single adjustment clip, I would normally have to go and use the "middle-mouse" button feature to copy the color correction from one adjustment clip to all of the other clips in different locations.
Something that would make this less tedious would be if I could "link," in a way, all of these clips together so changes to one adjustment clip would affect another.
I noticed that I could get something similar to what I want by creating a compound clip using camera footage then deleting the footage so I have a blank slate that acts as one instance however many times you place it on the timeline in which changes to one of these clips affects all of them.
I also noticed that, in the media pool, clips with these "red bars" that I originally thought had something to do with caching follow this "one instance" principal. These clips also have a "Usage" tab when you right click them whereas the clips that work independently of each other do not.
