Configuring export to AAF

There doesn't seem to be much difficulty, I just wanted to clarify how to export audio only or video only? Sometimes it is enough to transmit only the sound. I just wish I had more control over the process.
For reference, I'm attaching the AAF export settings window from AvidMC.
Thanks

    Hi @Filmus,

    Thanks for writing in. It sounds like you have some questions about AAF export and exporting audio or video. Is that right? I have this documentation which describes each of the functions. Can you check that out? Let us know if you have any questions.

      Thnak you, @Kevin-Monahan.,

      I just checked the information in your link. It has a really good description. However, I did not find the answer to my question there: how to export only video or only sound in AAF. At the moment I am creating a separate sequence, from which I delete the video and all unused tracks, except for V 1, which cannot be deleted. I think this is a temporary solution until the appropriate settings appear in the export settings.

      Hello @Filmus,

      Thanks for the note. I'm afraid the correct answer is that there is no ability for audio or video only exports in AAF. You have found the correct workaround. The team said the following:

      There is no option to export just audio or just video. The workflow editors use is when setting up for a turnover, they will usually copy and paste their sequence into a turnover sequence and part of that prep is to remove or disable the video or audio....also don't forget, simplify sequence can help in the prep process.

       

      I hope the info helps. I will move this thread into the Ideas forum. It's a good feature request. I upvoted. Sorry for the hassle.

       

      Thanks,
      Kevin
