I am currently working on a fanvid project that contains a stereo song and multiple video clips that have a source 5.1 audio and I then produce them in 2k resolution (2560x1440) which I upload to my YouTube channel. Since PD doesn't have a pre-set 2k resolution setting with 2560x1440 dimensions, I set up a new custom profile. I would then extract the voices from those video clips and eventually reduce these 6-ch audio to mono audio. In my case, I'm using a stereo song as background music so I want to have a full stereo audio for the whole video as an end result.
I tried to edit my custom profile config on Notepad and change the audio setting to Dolby Digital Stereo instead of DD 5.1 but when I reopen the program it still retains the DD5.1 config. I tried creating new custom profiles with the same settings (even tried AAC and LPCM but no dice) and with the Stereo config but they all end up being at 5.1 audio so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. The only workaround I know of this is to edit my config directly in PD but if I do I won't be able to use the 1440p setting which is what I need for my video. I don't want to have a 5.1 audio format on my video since it makes the voiceovers and especially the background music sound poor and weaker because of the surround sound. Has anyone had this happen to them before?
This is the custom profile I'm currently using if it helps:
