Quote This post was written for PD17, so you'll need to save the custom Profile.ini in the correct folder for PD19. That would be C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\CyberLink\PowerDirector\19.0\UserConfigure

It also sounds like you haven't yet created any custom profiles from inside PD, so you don't have an existing Profile.ini file in the above folder. Simply copy the 5.7k profile.ini file there. Rename it to profile.ini and the 5.7K option should be visible when you open up PD19 and go to the Produce page.

I had copy / pasted the contents of 5.7k profile.ini into the appropriate file. Turns out that PD19 is expecting that file to have UTF-16 encoding, which is not what I was using.

Found this out by emptying the contents of my file and then adding a new profile through the GUI with an empty ini file. Notepad showed spaces between every character, indicitative of UTF-16 (ie. the spaces were actually NULL bytes).

The non-UTF-16 encoding that I was using was preventing me from adding new profiles, as well.

The easiest thing to do is open up the 5.7K profile, select all content, then copy it and append it to the end of the existing Profile.ini in this folder C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\CyberLink\PowerDirector\17.0\UserConfigure. Then save the file and open up PD.

I tried doing that without success. I'm using PowerDirector 19 and when I click on the "Produce" button at the top. I select "Custom" as my "Profile type" and then I get a popup saying:

There are no customized profiles available. Select one from another profile group.

If I click on the "+" to "Create a new profile" the highest resolution I can select is 4096 x 2048.
