Set Preview preferences

By default, the Project Preview window uses a 4:3 frame aspect ratio. You can change the default ratio in order to

preview widescreen projects. Preview preferences also specify the target language and region codes. These settings

are used to mimic the behavior of your DVD or Blu-ray Disc player. The Project Preview window will show you how

the disc will play on devices with the matching setup.
