Creating custom profiles
Profiles contain settings that define how to create the final movie file. By using the preset profiles provided by Corel VideoStudio or by creating and saving your own profiles in the Movie Profile Manager, you can have multiple versions of your final movie. For example, you can create profiles that provide high-quality output for DVD and video recording, and you can create profiles that output to smaller, lower-quality files ideal for Web streaming and e-mail distribution.
You can also choose profiles and create custom profiles in the
Share workspace before you output your movie project. For more information, see
Working with custom profiles in the Share workspace.
