Hi. I would like to edit an mp4 file Ratio 1:1 (720x720). I start a new project - social media - square 1:1. When I open the video it gets distorted. I seems to have a black bar on the top and bottom. How can I fix this? Thank you!

You could try resetting Sound Forg14 and/or 18 in the 'File' menu.. however I would surmise it is a PC related issue. Some folks have had issues with MP3 files and resetting usually resolves that issue. There are no common problems with PCM wave
