Hi Ludrick -

I've never used PD6, so I don't honestly know whether it can be done.

Obviously, you must have located your Profiles folder - yes? You said you'd followed the steps but the profile didn't appear in PD's interface. Have I understood correctly?

I know that in PD8 & 9, profiles will not appear if you've used the wrong naming protocol.

Here's a slightly different method (just a variation) from the one in the PDtoots video http://www.youtube.com/user/ynotfish77#p/u/23/IIFemK-akHY - that may help overcome your problem.

Could you please post a screenshot of your profiles folder?

Cheers - Tony

The profile filename "WMV 19 HD 854x480 Quality" does not show in my PD8, while "WMV 9 HD 854x480 Quality" does show. It appears that the first part of the name is the key for seeing it in PD.

Hope this helps...

Bill

I'm afraid I've tried this as well and I still don't have the new profile when I choose WMV format in the Produce tab.

That might give a clue about why it's not showing...

What sized profile do you want? 720x480? Put the attached profiles in your profile folder & see if they appear in PD. They appear in my PD9.

If you compare them to what you've done, it might help you understand what's going wrong.

Thank you so much!!! I see only one in the profile, so I can't determine if it's NTSC or PAL, in which I need it to be NTSC, but I'm going to send the company a test video and see what they say!!!...what was I doing wrong?

Is there anyway that the key frame interval can be set to 1, because it won't let me change it to 1. Sorry I kept forgetting to show you my profile screenshot...

Ludrick -

There's a PAL version & an NTSC version of each profile in the folder, so they're available whatever format you're using.

I don't know what you were doing wrong, but it was probably something to do with how it was named.
