audio video grouping
 

As long as I have been on vegas, can't believe I can't sort this one out!!

Sense my last useage of 10e, I somehow managed to make it so when the captured video is placed on the track the audio and the video are naturally grouped. I do not want to have to go and individually group every clip in a two hour wedding video.

I tried highlighting all events and hitting group, obvious but did not work.

I even went through the manual and just hope to not have to spend a whole pile more time sorting this out.

There has to be a quick fix.

setting here waiting, hoping someone can save me a huge amount of time.

thank you,

dale

There's a button the toolbar called "Ignore Event Groupings." Make sure it's NOT pressed. Sounds like it is.

David,

you were right, I never use that so I must have accidently triggered it!! I went through the tool bar and missed it soehow.

Thanks for saving me a pile of time!!

How do you do L and J cuts? Maybe you don't . . .?

Grazie

Sometimes I just press "U" to do an L or J cut...

Re: audio video grouping
 

like edward i just use 'u'. then highlight and 'g'. what other ways are there?

Re: audio video grouping
 

Dale said he doesn't use "it", which I read as not using ungrouping. Now I understand that that means the actual Icon, but NOT the process. So that's why I asked how he does or doesn't do L+J cuts. In preference he uses the KB. Seesh...

Simple really.

grazie, that beast of yours and the quirks of 11 have gone a long way to sullying a clear thing mind ;-)

Actually, my therapist says I'm doing well. But what does she know?

I do use the Ignore Event Grouping button on occasion and it is probably the BEST way to do the l/j cuts (with the possible exception of using a script). If I'm in a hurry, I just hit "U" and adjust the desired track. In fact, in those cases I typically do NOT bother to group them back...
