After you have edited the audio tracks of an imported video file, use the produce video function to re-render the video with the updated audio applied. This produce feature is also used when mixing down all the tracks in the Mix room, including a video track, and then combining them into a single video file with the mixed audio.
To produce a video file, do this:
1. | Select the video file in the library you want to produce, click Produce in the AudioDirector quick bar above the timeline, and then select Produce Video. The Produce Video window opens. |
2. | Set the File information as follows: |
• | File name: enter in a new file name for the file. |
• | Location: click on to set the location of the folder where the produced video is saved. |

|
Note: if you have a CyberLink Cloud subscription you can select the Upload a copy to CyberLink Cloud option if you also want the program to upload the produced file to your CyberLink Cloud storage space after production.
|
3. | Use the Video profile settings to set the quality of the produce file as follows: |
• | Video format: select the format you want for the newly produced video file from the drop-down. See Supported Formats for information on the supported video file formats. |
• | Video profile: select the video profile, or video quality, of the produced file from the drop-down. |

|
Note: when outputting video in the H.264 and H.265 formats, video profiles with resolutions as high as 2K and 4K are available if the original video file is compatible.
|
4. | Use the Audio profile settings to set the quality of the produce file as follows: |
• | Audio codec: select the audio used on the audio portion of the file from the drop-down. |
• | Bitrate: if required, set the bitrate for the video's audio by selecting it from the drop-down. |
• | Sample rate: set the sample rate of the video's audio by selecting it from the drop-down. |
• | Bit depth: set the bit depth of the video's audio by selecting it from the drop-down. |
• | Channels: set the number of channels the video's audio will have. Depending on the video file format and audio codec specified, you can produce it with up to 5.1 channels, if required. |
5. | Click on Produce. The file is saved to the folder location specified and is also available in the media library. |

|
Note: if you selected to upload a copy of the produced file to CyberLink Cloud, AudioDirector will ask you if you want to convert it before uploading. Click Yes to convert it to an .MP4 file that is playable on a portable device, or No if you want to upload the original produced file.
