Remove audio, increase speed, remove gaps

Here is my manual process right now (Vegas Pro 14.00):

- one video track + one audio track - grouped using "G" key

- make a few splits, using "S" key, video and audio are always split at the same time marker

- ungroup a few segments (not all, green arrow preserved as is), using "U" key - this may not be necessary, see below

- remove audio for said segments (red arrow)

- increase speed of corresponding video segments

- move all to the left, no gaps (I think I already have a script for this somewhere)

I have a script which only removes audio (no ungroup needed), if audio is already selected - I can post it if you want, it's ugly.

I don't know how to select the corresponding video segments, increase speed, remove gaps.

I need script for: remove audio, increase video speed, remove gaps.

I do NOT need script for: making splits using "S" key.

Thank you very much.

Ok, after removing the audio events, here's a tutorial showing how to change the "speed" of an event.

You'll need to change the length as well to match the new speed. So, for example, you change the speed to 200%, just cut the length in half.

Then there's a couple of series on removing gaps:

All right, I'll take a look, thanks.
