Timeline and their Audio Type

apply to a clip containing exclusively a video element.

Timeline audio tracks must be selected (from the check box).

Dropping clips into the timeline is only possible between the same types of audio
tracks. You will not be able to drop a stereo track on a 5.1 track. Timeline audio track
type must have been set according to the clip track audio type: if the clip contains two
5.1 tracks and 2 stereo tracks, they must be set in the timeline.

tracks. A clip with 5 stereo tracks will not be droppable if a 5.1 track has been set in

clip with more than 5 audio tracks. If the clip contains more than 5 audio tracks:

tracks of the clip will be added to the edit.
