Hi,
I need a little bit help.
I try to creat Custom Profile like here: http://www.youtube.com/user/PDtoots#p/u/23/vw2RlzIt9EM.
(when I did it once in WMM it was very easy), now with PD9 I cant managed.
I did everything as should be: first downloaded Windows Media Encoder 9 series (to where exactly I should save it?) etc.
First resistance was, when I should export WMV 9 HD profile - after exporting program didnt ask me YES or NO.
Second resistance - I didnt see exported profile in Profile folder later! But I saw it in opened window (when I tried to export once again). I did small refresh but nothing.
And when all its done I dont see any created profile on Produce page in PD).

So, what I'm doing wrong?

BTW, PD9 has for 4:3 videos great possiblity to great custom profile as you want, why it cant be for 16:9 videos too?
here you can play Video compression bitrate as you like....

Hi Dafydd,
thanks for reply.
Unfortunately I'm on the beginning again: I did everything as was in your video (renamed etc), but when I opened PD, I saw this:

I saw two identical profile with the same information:

Hi Andres,
You're not changing the internal name of the prx template..

Hi Andres,
The Profiles are located in separate language directories - make sure you chose the right one.
The titling you have chosen is wrong.
1. The "- PAL" is what PD uses to identify the prx - chose something more suitable for an external name: "Andres HD 001 720p - PAL". DO NOT add additional "-" to an external template file name.
2. Use "Andres HD 001 720p" as an internal name, you don't need all the other stuff.
3. prx attached
Hope that helps

Dafydd
