Collapse the multicam or disable multicam playback ought to do it. Once you are synced, do you still need it to be a multicam sequence for some reason?

I guess it’s possible that Lumetri is being applied in the pipeline before the effect despite being layered above. Have you tried putting a Video Limiter Effect on instead?

If you aren’t into subscription software, give DaVinci Resolve a try. Won’t cost a cent to see if it fits your needs.

The linked media function will link together anything from the same master clip.
Honestly, I never use this function. Been using Avid since long before it existed, so I don’t miss it. Always seemed completely unecessary. I can see why people might want to use it, coming from other NLEs, though.

I suppose so. I usually do it the way I suggested though. Then you can be sure there are no lingering files to cause trouble. It also gives you the opportunity to just move the folder instead of completely deleting it, if you wish to be extra cautious.

You have Linked Selection turned on. The button under the word “timeline” at the top of your timeline toggles it on and off.

Yes, but don’t do it on the preference panel you show in your screen shots. Go to the actual folder on your hard drive (after quitting Premiere) and delete it (or move it someplace else). If you do it in the Preference panel, it won’t delete the cache files for the project you have open…so in this case, it won’t fix anything. Premiere will just rebuild a new Media Cache the next time you open the program. Hopefully, this might get rid of some corruption causing your issue. This might take a bit of time (you will see progress bars at the bottom of the timeline). I’d let it do its thing and not edit while this happens, as it affects performance…but you don’t necessarily have to. This isn’t harmful and you aren’t deleting actual media files.

Delete the Media Cache, reboot and let it rebuild. Do it at the desktop level, not in the Premiere settings, as that does not delete the Media Cache for the project you currently have open.

My experience is that it will work. Avid is generally more flexible with this sort of thing than Premiere. You should test this though. Download the trial of Avid and see what happens. Hopefully, you can get a hold of an existing older project for the test.
When going between different systems, I usually copy the bins (not the project file itself). Usually, thats all you need anyway, as the bins contain the clips and sequences. In other NLE’s, like Premiere, the bins are part of the project file, which makes things more difficult, but in Avid, they are independent files.
Obviously, stay away from using editing features not available on the older system.
I’ve successfully gone back and forth between two versions that were many years apart and had it work, but there are no guarantees here. It depends on quirks of specific versions and what features are used.Avid used to allow downloading of older versions of software, also. Not sure if that’s still possible in the new licensing scheme.

Faced this on my most recent project. Would have resulted in a 590GB “consolidation”. Used Resolve and got it to about 50.
