Working with Video  
Chapter 18  
Sound Forge® Pro software supports opening and saving Microsoft® Audio and Video Interleave (AVI), Windows Media® Video (WMV), 
QuickTime® (MOV), and MPEG video files. You can edit a video file’s audio track with single-frame accuracy. 
Viewing video 
You can view the video portion of a file in the data window’s video strip and in the Video Preview window. You can also view video on an 
external monitor. 
Using the video strip 
Though Sound Forge software does not perform video editing, the video strip display allows you to navigate video files.

You can change the video strip height by dragging the thin bar at the bottom of the video strip. To change the default height for all 
video files you open, choose Preferences from the Options menu and set a Default video strip height on the Display tab.

change the video strip height.
