Applying broadcast safe filter to every clip in my timeline?
Hey, I’m hoping this is really easy and I just haven’t figured it out yet. So I have a decent sized project with lots of clips and they all need a broadcast safe filter applied. I tried the “copy a clip and paste attributes” method but then I lose all my previous adjustments to every clip I’m pasting to so it wont work. Then I tried to highlight all the clips and apply broadcast safe to one hoping it would know I wanted to apply it to all. No dice. Of course I could manually drop the filter on every clip but… there are a lot of clips and there has to be an easier way. I usually wait until I am finished with a project and then apply the broadcast safe filters last so none of my adjustments take the shots out of legal territory. Is there an easy way to do this in FCPX? Thanks in advance for the help.

Very much like FCP7. Select all the clips. Make them a compound clip. Apply the broadcast safe effect to the compound clip.
All the best,

You can also use a FCPX ‘Adjustment layer’
See:

The Grading Sweet had a free broadcast safe filter that worked on sub RGB levels as well – but they haven’t bought out a FCPX filter yet.
