Odd Trimmer Behavior

I've only been using Vegas for a couple of weeks, but it has developed an odd behavior. (My guess is that it's a PEBKAC).

Sometimes when I drag a chunk of video out of the trimmer, all I get is the audio. The video stays behind. This didn't happen last weekend when I was working on Vegas using the same video files. It's a new (and annoying) behavior.

I thought perhaps I'd screwed up some of the preferences, so I set them all back to defaut. Once I reloaded the project, the video moved just as I expected.

Later, working on the same project, the video stopped dragging again.

Without changing anything, I closed and re-opened the project. This time the video came across.

Any thoughts on what I'm doing to cause this would be appreciated.

If you right-mouse-button click on the timeline in the trimmer window a menu pops up that includes the options to select video only, audio only, or both audio and video. If you somehow change that to audio only and then for future selections drag across only the audio track, you will get only audio. It seems though that if you drag across the video track to select that you'll get both audio and video regardless of this setting.

Hmmm....that might be worth looking into. Thanks!
