<title>Editing project settings</title>
<p>When starting a new project, you should make sure to adjust the project settings, such as framerate,
resolution and preferred codecs. The video resolution and aspect ratio will affect the appearance of the
previewer. If you do not set the resolution and aspect ratio to match those of your footage, the video may
look squished or letterboxed.</p>

settings or metadata. To edit the project settings after initial creation, use
