Want to strip audio from video clip
I’m using Vegas Pro v. 9.0e.
I mostly work with still photos. I have placed a small video clip as an event into a project. Vegas put the video on a video track, and the audio from the clip on an audio track. The two are linked, so if I delete the audio track, the video component is also deleted. I presume this is standard, normal behavior.
I am also using VirtualDub to do some editing of video clips before bringing into Vegas.
I would like to know if there is a way to get rid of the audio component of the video clip. I don’t want to just mute the audio segment in Vegas, for reasons I don’t need to go into here. I want to actually strip the audio from the clip (or disassociate the audio from the video), so that the video clip exists in Vegas just as a video track event.
My guess is that there is a simple solution, but I am not a very sophisticated user, and have not been able to figure this out.
Thank you.

Or click on the clip and press u on your keyboard which ungroups the video from the audio.

Steve,
Thanks. Worked — although I think you meant “right” click, which causes the context menu to appear when dropping in the timeline.
Appreciate the quick and easy response.
Just out of curiosity — do you know whether there is a way to remove the audio after having already dropped the event on the timeline?

Another option is to click the “Ignore event grouping” toolbar button, select audio event and hit Del.

Of course! It never occurred to me that the two were simply grouped together. Comes from not working with the product on a daily basis.
Thanks.
