Editing Caveats

The following caveats apply to video editing in
Pro Tools:

• MPEG-2 video in the Timeline cannot be ed-

ited.

• If you create and enable a track group contain-

ing audio and video tracks—and any audio
track has region boundaries that do not line
up with video frame boundaries— you cannot
tab through those region boundaries.

The following editing operations are applicable
to audio regions, but are not applicable to video
regions:

• Fades
