Depending on the power of your computer you can get problems with the video not keeping up for larger numbers of tracks with Reaper or playback glitching out. You can do mixing of audio with the video window closed to save on resources when concentrating on audio. When doing video automation, click the time cursor through the project to see how things are looking in the video window and you should get good quality results when rendering to video (slower than realtime if there are large numbers of videos). Some dedicated video editors like Final Cut Pro X etc. do background rendering to help but Reaper doesn't do that (and freezing a track doesn't preserve video in Reaper as of yet).
