    I failed to assign the correct audio roles when I imported media.

    If I now change them in the browser, they don’t show up changed in the timeline or indeed the XML. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks Guy

    No, that’s how it works. You’ll have to select and change the role of the clips in the timeline separately. You can select all the clips, right click and change the audio role in a batch pretty easily.

    I can’t change my audio roles at all. Upon importing I can make them green. I’d like music to be one color, other audio another, but nothing works.

    Don’t know if this would help:

    First you have to create new roles, then assign those roles to clips. You can edit the colors in the role editor (the same place you create new roles).
