Oops I hadn't seen the existing Mantis entry. Have put my comments on
that issue instead. Thanks Carsten.

We can already disable audio from interleaved files
(essentially, this
resets the audio matrix for all existing input channels). There is
already a Mantis feature entry to 'enable disabling' of video as well.
Don't know how much thinking Carl has already spent on that. It would
make creating OV/VFs a lot easier.
Admittedly, there are ways around it currently, usually by creating an
intermediate DCP that allows you to extract audio and/or subtitles and
then reuse the encoded video.

http://main.carlh.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dcpomatic As far as I know, you can't disable
video-track in DCP-o-matic.
Actually, this would be high on my wish list, but for different reasons.
I often find I need to combine the video from one file/DCP with audio
from another video file.
What would be great is if there was an "Ignore video" checkbox on the
video tab (or a "Use video" checkbox which defaults to ticked).
Two use cases:
1. I have made a DCP, but now filmmaker wants to change the audio
mix. I am provided a ProRes file containing video (which I don't
need) and the new audio.
At present, I have to export the audio from the ProRes as e.g. WAV,
and then import the WAV into DCP-o-matic.
It'd be faster to be able to import the ProRes direct to DCP-o-matic
and ask it ignore the video and use the audio only.
2. Existing DCP needs a shot substituted (quite common, particularly
to correct a misspelled/omitted name in credits).
The shot to be dropped in is provided as a video file with no audio.
At present, I need to export the existing audio from the DCP, then
create a video file containing both the new shot + the audio. That
file can then be cut into the timeline in DCP-o-matic.
Again, it'd be easier if could do it all in DCP-o-matic without the
extra step.
There are workarounds for both, so it's probably not the most
important, but if it's easy to implement then it'd be very useful.
I've created a Mantis issue:
