CyberLink PowerDirector
Batch Produce
CyberLink PowerDirector lets you produce multiple projects an once using the
Batch Produce feature. In the Batch Produce window, you can import multiple
CyberLink PowerDirector projects in the .pds format and output them as video files
in a variety of formats all in one sitting.
To perform a batch production, do this:
Note: if you are currently working on a video production, you must save and close
it before you can perform a batch production.
1. Select File > Batch Produce from the menu.
2. Click , and then browse to and select the CyberLink PowerDirector
project you want to add to the production queue.
3. If required, click on the file name in the Outputted File Name column to
change the name of the outputted video file.
4. If required, click on to edit the task's production profile settings as
follows:
Note: if required, click on the Intelligent SVRT button for assistance on selecting
an output profile. See Utilizing Intelligent SVRT for more information.
Output folder: if required, select another location on your computer where
the file will be outputted to by clicking to set another output folder.
Production type: select whether you want to output the selected task as a
video file, video file for a device, or a 3D* video file.
Media file format: select the format of the outputted video file from this drop-
down.
Note: based on your first two selections, the available drop-downs that follow will
differ. Use them to select 3D* output format, profile, etc.
Click OK to close the Profile Settings window and set your changes.
5. If your computer supports hardware acceleration (NVIDIA graphics card
that supports CUDA, an AMD graphics card that supports AMD Accelerated
Parallel Processing, or a computer with Intel Core Processor Family
technology) and you are outputting in a file format that supports it (H.264 and
MPEG-4), select the Enable GPU hardware video encoder
automatically option if you want CyberLink PowerDirector to use it,
when available, during the batch production.
