Moving 'movie' and 'sound track' in sync??

I have my movie up and the related soundtrack pulled to track one. I've done a full length version of the film, and want to keep just adjusting it in relation to bar one for each of the 'scenes' I have to score.

I can just drag and reposition the video track. Mmmm. But of course it doesn't bring the movie audio track (on track one) along with it. Is there some way to link or lock the two, so I can just reposition the both simultaneously for each 'section' of the film I am scoring?

All ears,

Ben

Shift-click each to select them together, then drag.

BenB,

Dang. So easy. Thank you. I muted the audio track, and used the sound on the video ... which is a pain, because I have to go into preferences to control volume or mute.

This is much much better. Very kind of you. And appreciated.

Ben

BenB,

Doesn't seem to work. I shift click and there is no 'locking'. They move separately. Perhaps I am missing something? I tried a bunch of qualifying keys, nothing seemed to have an effect. They are separate, and won't lock.

I see a 'lock' icon at the head of the audio track. I'm trying to figure out if it can be opened, unlocked, and THEN the shift click will work. Going through the manual. No unlocking cues so far.
