Answers.Text: The yellow bar missing was an accurate indicator that there was no video for that segment. Even when I tried exporting the video (not just previewing), it was black during the portions where the yellow bar was missing. -- I think this was a bug/issue because when I looked at the track output, it was enabled, and the eye icon was enabled too. So **both options were enabled already**, yet the video never played. I had to toggle them both off, then toggle them both on again, and only then was the yellow bar issue resolved, and the resulting video did not have "holes" in it.

Answers.Body: <p>Just wanted to say thanks, Senseful! I moved over a project file and the related video/audio files from my weaker laptop to a stronger desktop for final Media-out-rendering, and I had the exact same issue. Multicam project, and one of the cameras was just black holes instead of video in the final rendering (grrr, still 3 days lost to a bad render). I found this question, and what worked for me was disabling and then enabling all the various clips for one particular video track. Then I had the yellow bars again above everything in the multicam track, which were missing before (same as what you describe).</p>
  
  <p>I don't know what "stib" is talking about - it definitely was an issue for me in the exact same way you described. Hope I don't run into this again but at least next time I'll be sure to make sure those yellow bars are there before pressing the export button!</p>

Answers.Body: <p>This happened after I applied effects (lumetri color) to one clip of my three cameras in the master timeline, that camera remained in the muticam timeline with yellow over it but wherever cam 2 and 3 were (which had no effects on them) there were holes of no yellow, I fixed this by going the the master timeline clicking on the cam 2 and 3 clips individually and messin with the effects, not really adding any, but moving the temperature and tint bar, for example, as if I was, and then returning it to zero. This restored yellow over all my clips in muticam view, because, it seems, premiere registered me adding effects. Weird.</p>

Comments.Text: The yellow bars indicate that there is content that needs to be rendered, but which can be played back in real time. No bar means either that there is no content, *or* that the content does not need to be rendered. https://theblog.adobe.com/red-yellow-and-green-render-bars/
