un-syncing the audio and video
To make a slide show, I dropped some .jpgs in the video line and an .mp3 on the voice line. When I try to move or edit the music, it moves portions of the video (undesirably!). Is there a way to move the items on each editing line without affecting other editing lines?

Select the piece you want to move and press “U” to “ungroup” them. Alternately, you can turn on “Ignore Event Grouping” but you have to remember to turn it back off!

So sorry… but toggling “ignore event grouping” has no effect (..tried that before my post!). Using “alt”, “ctrl+alt”, and “ctrl” allow me to move music within the envelope, but as soon as I try to resize the music, it affects the video portion. In fact, it splits the video at seemingly random portions of the slide show unless I try to resize it at the very beginning, which always moves the entire video and audio. If I try to resize the audio at the very end, it selects one of the pictures in the video at random and overlaps all of the rest of them.
I finally resolved the problem by moving the audio within the envelope using “ctrl+alt”, then splitting the audio using “s” at the end of the clip and deleting the unwanted portion of the audio created by the split, but there has to be a better way! The beginning of the clip is still only marginally acceptable!
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!.. Paul

Ok, here’s what might be going on. Try turning OFF “auto ripple”
