You seem to be misinterpreting my posts. My original footage is perfect. I did not expect, as you seemed to imply, PD to improve this.
I did, however, expect it to preserve and not degrade it by using the built in YT settings.
Please re-read my original post.

@Optodata - "The source is everything" As originally stated, the source footage is perfect. I wasnt expecting PD to upgrade the quality, but by using its YouTube function to preserve it.

Thanks, tried that already. It was precisely because of the poor quality uploads direct that I paid for PD. I was hoping to improve on direct upload and Quik by paying for a customisable processing suite. Unimpressed so far, I have to say.

Camera: Gopro Hero 5 black
Shooting in 1920x1080 @59.94fps
Motorcycle mounted.
All my videos are high quality when viewed straight from the camera or imported into my pc, but if I upload to Youtube they look like they've been made from Lego. Even using PD "youtube" production button ( before Google denied permission-a side issue) nothing comes close to the quality I shot, or the quality I see in some YT videos.
Does anyone have a definitive , comprehensive list of settings that will allow me to upload my videos to YT and for them to display "as filmed"?
I've spent hours reading and trying various combinations, uploading and checking quality but nothing works.
Is it a Gopro issue, aPD issue, aYT issue, Windows or a combination of all these in the hands of a buffoon?
Thanks.

Thanks, JL_JL.
That's the sort of logic I was looking for. Location or rather location nomenclature protocols, not file format. Regarding using Quik or Windows, thanks to all, I was already aware how to get stuff into PD that way, but it was more the idea of why couldn't I do it direct that interested me. Thanks again, all.

To quote a sentence directly from PCMag uk:
"Power Director can of course import and edit footage from Gopro cameras, as well as from other action cameras from the likes of Sony, Kodak and Ion."
The article was referring to PD14, but surely if 14 can do it, 365 can?
Methinks I shall contact Cyberlink directly.

Glad it's not just me, then. As you say, transfer clips to pc or put sd card in reader, easy enough, but.... there seems to be no reason why we shouldn't be able to go direct. Thanks for confirming the issue. Any other takers?

Sorry if this has been asked and answered a million times, but I couldn't find anything concrete using the forum search function.
My Gopro Hero 5 Black videos are visible when I use the import function in Power Director 365, but when I click to import them nothing happens. If I take the card out of the camera and put it in a usb card reader, PD365 will import them, so location rather than format seems to be the problem. Not a massive issue, but I had been told I would be able to import / drag & drop directly from camera to editing suite.
Can anyone explain why it won't import directly, how to fix it if fixable, or what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance, a 60 year old technophobe.
