I deleted the Colorista II effect from a clip, but the clip still shows the coloring changes I made.  Even the footage in the Project Panel has the changed coloring. 

If I browse to the original footage and play it, it appears like it originally did.  I’ve deleted all the render files, tried relinking all the clips, and tried “Remove Effects.”  Nothing seems to work.  It’s like the Colorista II effect settings are still hidden in there somewhere.  Any ideas on how to reset them?

Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5.5
Colorista II version 1.0.1
Windows 7

Update:  Crazy!  Every piece of footage in the project panel now has the hidden colorista effect applied to them.  They’ve all received the same coloring as the colorista effect I deleted.

Update:
I tried exporting one of the clips that had the deleted colorista effect applied to it through Adobe Media Encoder.  It turns out that the clip looks like the original with no color effects applied to it. 

So it’s not that there’s a hidden colorista effect in every clip, but somehow both the source viewer and sequence viewer have the colorista effect applied to them.

I created a new Premiere project and imported some brand new footage.  Same problem - the source viewer and program viewer has the colorista effect applied to them.

I tried uninstalling everything magic bullet related.  Didn’t help. 

I tried cleaning the Media Cache Database and doing the ctrl+alt+shift restart for Premiere.  Didn’t help.

Will keep investigating…

Here’s the thing…

Neither the Source nor the Program monitors inside of Premiere Pro are reliable for quality control.  They are there for monitoring content only.  To get a proper view of what the video looks like, you need to send the signal out to a properly calibrated external TV.  So until you get that hooked up, you’re kind of wasting your time trying to chase down a problem that may not even exist.
