Mute/Solo buttons ignored by Mix and Render

The mute/solo buttons are ignored when using "Mix and Render" or "Ctrl+SHIFT+M".

Alternatively, SHIFT+Click the Track Control Panel (the box on the left ...

It may not have solved the immediate problem, but it's a good sound card, so it's not wasted money.

Re: Spoken movie subtitles?

I'm not against your ideas, I'm just indicating what is already implemented in Audacity. Do you think that you could condense your proposals into specific items?
