Linked Video and Audio Cutting Separately

Question

Hello,

I am relatively new with premiere pro and have run into an issue with cutting clips. As my timeline plays, I'll pause and cut a part of the sequence. I will click play again and pause at the next cut section. When I select cut again, it only cuts the audio. The clips are currently listed as still linked. Are there any suggestions on how to resolve this? Unlinking the clip and audio and linking them again does not resolve the issue. Similarly, I will click on a part of the timeline and the video is the only part selected, but it says it's still linked.

Thank you for any advice.

Shutdown and restart your computer.Create a new projectAdd a clip with linked audio, and make a sequence withWith the clip not selected, make sure that button is on.Click the video portion  They both light up (audio and video)With the clip not selected, make sure that button is OFF.Click the video portion  Only the video lights up.   I figured it out - I was using the social media template and that was messing with the process. I stopped using the template and everything is linked now. Trial and error. Thanks everyone for their input.

If the button (linked selection) is not active you will still be cutting just video or audio despite the video and audio are linked in the context menu.

Your screenshot clearly shows the issue.

Just highlight the button and try it.............
