Which filter is the best to use to fix a problem

The color correction you applied looks really good however I cannot work out what the changes were. I assume you used color correction - white balance and then merely copied the attributes to the other images?

Just look at the attributes of each photo and use the Customize Filter option to see what each filter does.

Thanks. I was too busy and cold at the time to "put my mind into gear", double click on the clip/image and then select attributes.

Back to editing after a break.

I have been looking at the different 'filters' applied (Color Balance, Color Fixer Plus and Video tuneup) all of which appear to have different 'values' for each 'clip'.

I was hoping to just use one 'change' and simply copy it to each of the 30 or more clips which were shot with the manual red/blue incorrect set rather than 'play around' with settings for each separate clip as I assume that each original clip would have the same amount of extra red tone. Maybe that would be also affected by the brightness and contrast of the lighting at the time?

I noticed a filter named AUTO LEVEL and tried it on one clip and was pleased with the result. Exactly what does the auto level control? I am thinking brightness, contrast and color balance?
My other thought was to use color balance and decrease the red a little and increase the blue a little and apply the same to each of the clips shot with the incorrect color.

FYI I have recorded a scene in my backyard where I placed an A4 sheet of premium inkjet photo paper with the extra and red and without and I could hardly see any difference and so I am guessing that even with the camera set to record more red and less blue that the auto white balance and/or the brightness/contrast of the scene can affect the outcome.
I will have to try various filters and white balance for each change of scene. I was hoping for an easy fix.
