Issue: Playback is not able to show you cuts well - fixed in v. 1.4
Issue: Audio not working on Preview
Issue: Separating Sound from Image
Workaround solution: Extract Empty Audio and Video outside Open Shot, Import them separately, then sync! Suggested Timeline Setting: Track 1: Click on the Sound Logo on the Left to mute Track 2: Click on the Eye Logo on the Left to blind Track 3: Click on the Eye Logo on the Left to blind
This way we have one Video Track and Two Audio tracks.
The audio is not played in preview if the audio in the first track is muted
