I took some notes on a video this morning, using a relative timer. I
wasn't able to start until several minutes into the video. Then,
later, I went back and started from the beginning, starting the timer
pretty much on time. Now I have to reset all the times in the
original notes from this morning.
I found this in the documentation for the relative timer:
`C-c C-x 0'
Reset the timer without inserting anything into the buffer. By
default, the timer is reset to 0. When called with a `C-u'
prefix, reset the timer to specific starting offset. The user is
prompted for the offset, with a default taken from a timer string
at point, if any, So this can be used to restart taking notes
after a break in the process. When called with a double prefix
argument `C-c C-u', change all timer strings in the active region
by a certain amount. This can be used to fix timer strings if the
timer was not started at exactly the right moment.
When I tried this on the original notes, the function
"outline-up-heading" is invoked. Is there a typo in the docs?

Prefix means, C-u before the other keys, C-u C-c C-x 0
I guess you tries C-c C-u ?
