magix edit pro premium not registering both audio tracks of a video

So I keep hearing how about how you can switch between audio tracks on a video when you record them. When I important the video I have no option to do this and have been reading through the forms and I can't find anything relating to this and been combing through how to videos and still not finding the answer I'm looking for. I know this video has both tracks on it due to when I test run it on HD movie maker and that I can switch between the tracks on that. Any and all help is much appreciated.

Ray,

Let's not extrapolate the discussion into non-applicable scenarios

I disagree.

An awful lot of games have 5.1 surround tracks to them even if eventually they get mixed down to stereo.

There's been no mention of 5.1 sounds by the OP. Had he been trying to edit a 5.1 track, then obviously VPX would be better and I would not have suggested MEP. But that is not what he gave us. And I say again "...for the odd occasion..."

As for the lack of waveform, MEP isn't displaying the audio correctly because when you bring the WAV back onto the timeline, even though the waveform levels (and volume) are good before and after the export (after I normalised).

So using my method, you do need to export both audio tracks to get meaningful waveforms to allow editing.
