Save metadata with file

Select the Save metadata with file check box to save marker, region, playlist, sampler, loop, and summary information with the file. If the file type selected in the Save as type drop-down list doesn’t support metadata, Sound Forge prompts you to save the metadata in an external file with an .sfl extension. For more information, see Using Markers, Regions, and the Playlist/Cutlist on page 91, Adding summary information on page 89, and Saving loop points on page 233.

Stretch video to fill output frame (do not letterbox)

This option applies to file types that contain a video stream. Selecting the Stretch video to fill output frame (do not letterbox) check box stretches the source video frame if the destination frame rate differs. When this option is turned off, letterboxing or pillarboxing occurs. For more information, see Saving a video file on page 242.
