Blu-ray Disc size not changing.

I followed adobes workflow for final cut to encore cs4 by using compressor to create and MPEG2 Elementary stream Blu-ray file.
now when i take the file (20GB) into encore the blu-ray project and my disc info always says 28 GB. I am trying to trim the end of the video so that the file would be smaller on the disc. I can do this fine with SD DVD's but in the blu-ray even if I make the timeline with only 5min of footage it keeps saying 28GB.
is there something I am doing wrong?
The file says don't Transcode.
I am new to Encore and so far my experience hasn't been great with all the times its been crashing during importing assets and the "General Error" popups.
I am using CS4 with the latest patch

I'm not really the most qualified to answer your question. Since the obsolescence of DVD Studio Pro and the ability to program menus and Steve Jobs saying that BD is a "bag of hurt" and Macs not directly supporting BD, there's been no point for me getting involved with BD creation. Media players (like Roku) will win (IMO.)
Does the disc you made at least play from your Samsung burner?
AVCHD discs are playable on blu-ray players and your final file size is small enough to fit on a regular DVD-r disc. Have you tried just making an AVCHD disc on DVD-r?
You can actually burn blu-ray directly from FCPX OR you can create an AVCHD disc (just select the appropriate Output Device from the Settings tab in the Share dialog.) Simply Share to Blu-ray (you might have to Add Destination from the Share popup menu.) Does burning directly from FCPX make a difference? (I'd hate to have you sacrifice a 25g disc though... that's why I'd suggest trying the AVCHD disc first.)
[I'm sure other people have had better luck, but I have never had a Sony product that I could recommend to anyone. From old CD players to HD TV, everything Sony I ever bought turned to junk... except maybe one of the walkmans which I only keep around for extended blackouts (like hurricanes). After the TV, I finally learned my lesson. I would suspect the players as faulty before suspecting the disc as a coaster especially if it plays from the Samsung burner.]

HP HDX 16 Blu-Ray discs will not play!

I have researched this Blu Ray issue for days without a real solution. I am running Vista and notice many people feel upgrading to windows 7 was the issue, but I do not believe it is since I am still on Vista, with the same Blu-Ray disc issuey here. Also I do not have Itunes another popular fix. I did upgrade all the drivers I could and all the software I could from HP but did not resolve the issue. I can play regular dvd discs but not the Blu-Ray ones with the exception of 1. Surprisingly it is a newer one also. Updating the Media Smart has also caused a problem with not being able to use the keyboard light at the top to open the dvd drive. (one problem at a time though.)
The DVD Lightscribe drive shows as: HL-DT-ST-BDDVDRW CT10L ATA Device
After years of this issue being a problem does anyone have a real fix solution? Or Does the Blu-Ray player need to be replaced and with what.

TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player not compatible with USB speakers

I have a P850, using Logitch Z305 USB speakers. The speakers work fine with all other multimedia software such as WMP, iTunes or MPC, but not with TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player. The Toshiba program either won't work or will crash if the speakers are plugged in. Is anyone aware of a way to fix this?
Thanks

This Logitech speakers are plug and play device that uses standard driver and are installed as any other plug and play device. I dont have it but I saw interesting movie on You Tube about it.
To be honest I dont understand why it cannot works with TOSHIBA Blu-ray Disc Player. I think you are the first one who has reported about this issue.
Problem is that Toshiba doesnt support third part software or hardware so it is not easy to find solution for this.
I really hope there are other users who have fixed it or can offer some useful tip for this pretty strange issue.

TS3495 My recent blu ray purchase did not come with a digital copy disc as others have in the past, and no place in the case for one to be either, just came with instructions, so now what?

My new blu ray disc did not come with a seperate digital download dis, now was there even a place for one inside the case, it came with instructions of how to install I tunes, then magically I would be prompted to enter the promo code and have it, no such luck, so now what?

Have you actually followed the instructions?
Did you enter the promo code?
If you did, were there any error messages?

Can my Mackbook play Blu-ray discs?

Recently I bought a LG Blu-ray drive, but all my blu-ray discs did not seem to work even with Blu-ray drive. I tried Powerdvd,and it can not be compatible on my Mac OS. Is there any good Mac Blu-ray Player?

There's this one. You'll find at least a couple of others under different names, but they're all by the same company. The only real difference between them is the looks of the control bar.
It's kind of expensive because you're paying the license fee on the built in codec so it can read and decode the movie for playback. You also have to be online when watching a commercial Blu-ray movie as it does some sort of authenticity verification of the disk.

Has a stop marker any function when burning blu-ray discs with Premiere Elements 12?

Stop marker when burning blu-ray discs with Pre 12. Does it works?

Amiral
No.
This applies to Premiere Elements any version.
Stop markers placed on the Premiere Elements Timeline destined for burn to Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc are not recognized at playback of that disc using the Blu-ray player.
If you need Blu-ray disc with stop markers, you can export your Premiere Elements Timeline content to an appropriate file type that will be compatible with a 3rd party software which will get the job done. I have heard that a software such as DVD Architect can do that, but I have not been there and done that.
Stop markers function at playback of DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc only. And, never place a stop marker at the end of the last item on that Timeline.

Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything written.
Thank you.

Add On...I have found that the situation is the same for stop markers and AVCHD on DVD and Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc.

Mounting UDF 2.50 2.60 Blu-Ray discs on Solaris 11

Is it actually impossible to mount UDF 2.50/2.60 file system discs on Solaris 11.1 x86. Such as blu-ray discs. Not that blu-ray movies, but BD-R discs with files burned on Windows.
There is no any SUNWudfr / SUNWudfrx / SUNWudf packages available in Package Manager.
Mounting like 'mount -F udfs ...' returns an error 'is not an udfs file system'. Seems that is wrong way.

system/file-system/udfs is installed on my system
As it is described in Package Manager:
ISO 13346 Universal Disk Format (UDF) 1.50 File System module and utilities
That means DVD support only. Blu-ray discs are all UDF 2.50 or UDF 2.60 by default.
Seems Solaris does not read them.

CD/DVD/Blu Ray failing to detect/read blu ray discs

Hello Sony Communitythis is my first post so please be patient with me I have a Sony vaio laptop, model name is VPCEG16FMi have already restored it to factory settings a couple days ago and everything is up to date and running smoothly. Except... the Blu Ray disc reader? DVD/CD works fine, however when i insert a Blu Ray disc, it skips like two or three times and fails to read it. When i first purchased this laptop the of course everything worked fine but its just the darn blu ray disc reader and its bugging the ****** out of me. Some of my solutions was of course, restoring to factory setting and a complete update downloads. Then, after reading some other blog posts i have also tried going to the device manager and uninstalling the dvd/cd drive then restarting my computer. It successfully reinstall on its own when restart the laptop but again, only the ****** blu ray discs are not being read. My friend also tried something called driver rollback? But it seemed very useless lol.. Im starting to believe that the reader is actually just broken but if so then wouldn't dvds and cds not work as well?? Please help Sony community! you guys are my last hope!

Hello RichO!Thank you so much for your response!!! And yes, it fails to read any/all blu ray disks..When i was trying to solve the problem I just popped in any blu ray movie in arms reach. One after another but the same problem kept on occurring. Then I tried only the movies that I have previously watch and knew worked before on my laptop, and none of them were able to be read either.

I keep getting "media not present" when tring to burn blu ray disc using PE 10. This used to work fine. Nothing changed as far as I know

Has any one had this problem?

Karl
Thanks for the reply.
Part 1.
1. Task Manager/Process. If you are seeing the following processes with Premiere Elements 10 closed, then Task Manager/Processes and End Task for each of these processes
that you are seeing there
a. Adobe QT32 Server.exe
and
b. Elements Auto Analyser.exe
Part 2.
a. Open Premiere Elements 10 to the Timeline workspace, go to Help Menu/Deactivate and click on Deactivate. Close out of there.
b. Then, uninstall Premiere Elements 10 via the usual Control Panel route.
c. Do a run through with the free ccleaner (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts).
CCleaner - Download
d. Reinstall Premiere Elements 10 with antivirus and firewall(s) disabled.
Part 3. ccleaner details.
Cleaner part. This is straight forward. Click on the Cleaner Tab in the left column of the ccleaner dialog and then click on Run Cleaner in the section of the dialog to the right.
Registry part. Click on the Registry Tab in the left column of the ccleaner dialog. Then click on Scan for Issues in the section of the dialog to the right.
After the "Scan for Issues" is completed, you will then see an active "Fix Selected Issues" to the right of "Scan for Issues".
Click on "Fix Selected Issues".
At this point, you will see a pop up dialog
Click Yes to that message and continue to Save the registry backup file to your computer hard drive location of your choice.
Follow the on screen instructions after the save of the registry back up file.
Part 3.
The critical part is that you obtain the Premiere Elements 10 installation files. You already have the purchased serial number. So you should be OK on the serial number side of things.
Download and install the Premiere Elements 10 tryout files appropriate to your computer from the following web site. It is critical that you read and care out word for word the web page's write up for "Note: Very Important Instructions" and use its click "here" as instructed. Otherwise you will get an excess denied message.
Photoshop Elements 10 Direct Download Links: Free Trials, Premiere | ProDesignTools
During the installation of these files to your computer, when asked for, insert your purchased serial number into them.
Make sure that antivirus and firewall(s) are disabled for the download and install.
Comments. There are no guarantees that this will resolve the "No Media Present" for Premiere Elements 10 burn to AVCHD on DVD and Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc. In the end, you may have to look at external burners until you find one that works for you for these burn to choices.
Did any of your computer pre-loaded software come with backup installation files? I suspect not.
Please review the above and then let us know if you need clarification on any of the above. You might want to give more consideration to exploring the external burner possible solution.
Thanks.

Premiere Elements 12 does not recognize blank Blu-ray disc.

I just upgraded from Premiere Elements 8 to PRE12. Now when I insert a blank Blu-ray disc in the BR burner, I get a message "Media Not Present". It does recognize the burner, but not the blank disc. Yet when I open PRE 8, PRE 8 does recognize this very same disc in the same burner! Also, PRE 12 can burn a blank DVD in this same burner. The Blu-ray disc also appears as a completely blank in Windows File Explorer. And this is a problem even after updating to release 12.1. The Adobe chat representative tells me this is a know issue with PRE12. I find that difficult to accept, since why would Adobe change in PRE 12 something that was not broken? What's the truth, and when and how can it be fixed?

First, I tried uninstalling, register cleaning and reinstalling Premiere Elements. This was a mess. I kept getting error messages when trying to reinstall. So I had to do a system restore to just before I uninstalled PRE. After that restore, PRE would not open. So I did another uninstall from Control Panel and reinstall, without touching the registry. Then, I was back in operation, several frustrating hours later. But still the BR drive would not recognize Blu-ray discs.
So then I loaded a BR-RE disc, instead of a BR-R, and still no recognition.
Then I installed the external Blu-ray burner, and finally PRE12 recognized the blank Blu-ray disc. I had a sign that this would work when I attached an external DVD drive to burn a AVCHD file, and PRE12 recognized the blank media, whereas it did not recognize any blank DVDs in the internal BR drive for burning AVCHD files. As a alternative to borrowing an external BR drive to see if this fixes the Media not Present message, I suggest using a much more readily available external DVD drive and try to burn a AVCHD file first. If that works, then one can be much more confident that purchasing an external Blu-ray drive will provide the solution.
Yet I deeply resent having to purchase a $125 piece of hardware, which is otherwise useless to me, to fix a bug in a program. The box promises the ability to export a Blu-ray disc. Since their lawyers use the weasel word "compatible" Blu-ray burner required, I fully expect them to take the position that now only an external burner is "compatible", and do nothing to fix the compatibility with internal burners. Potential buyers be forewarned!
As an alternative to paying more money to make their software work as indicted on the box, one might want to settle for only being able to write AVCHD files to a DVD. Most every computer (except Ultrabooks) has an internal DVD burner, which supposedly all that would be needed to burn this kind of HD file. But first, we all need to know, will PRE12 return a Media not Present message when burning a AVCHD file to an internal DVD burner? What are the field reports of any problems incurred doing this procedure? Please advise.
And one more question. When I burn an AVCHD file to a DVD, the DVD is not finalizied by PRE12. After burning the AVCHD file, the DVD shows free space available, but after burning a DVD Video, there is no free space available. Moreover, ImgBurn does finalize DVDs after burning AVCHD files to them. So Is this failure by PRE12 to finalize another bug? Can ImgBurn now finalize an unfinalizied AVCHD disc left by PRE12 -- without having to run another session of PRE to burn to a folder now, of course? If so, how?

Once and for all: Can DVD SP build Blu-Ray disc content or not?

Maybe I’m crazy, but…
Everything I’ve heard to date has Apple backing the Blu-Ray format. Believing this, I just spent $900 on a new Lacie D2 external Blu-Ray burner (which IS Mac compatible). I also purchased Toast 8 (which IS Blu-Ray compatible).
All I need to do now is build my disc content (assign H.264 1920x1080 content, build menus, etc.) then drop it all into Toast and burn Blu-Ray video discs… right?
So what is all this I’m reading here about DVD Studio Pro supporting the HD DVD format and not Blu-Ray???!!!!!!
Am I going to be able to do this using DVD SP or not, and if not, can anybody tell me a program I can use to build my Blue-Ray disc content? (All of my HD content is H.264 (1920x1080) rendered directly from Adobe After Effects).
My deadline for this project is fast approaching and I’m hoping somebody can shed some light on this. If I can build Blu-Ray discs and burn them on my Mac using Toast 8 and the Lacie D2, I’ll make my deadline and justify the $900 spent thus far.
Can anybody help?
Thanks, SM

Wait a minute,
Maybe I don’t need to buy PC to run DVDit Pro HD. I have a Mac Pro! With Boot camp I have a PC! Any reason I shouldn’t try running DVDit on my Mac via the Boot Camp beta? That way I'd also be using my Lacie D2 Bu-Ray drive. And with Roxio's 30 day return policy I haven’t much to loose...
I'm calling Roxio tech support. Let you know how it goes

A LITTLE LATER:
Just got back from digging into Roxio's discussion forum and here's what I found:
I have travelled down the same frustrating path my friend!
But I did succeed doing it all on my new mac Pro, finally...
Install BOOTCAMP (free beta). Install WINDOWS XP ($269 from AMAZON). Install ULEAD BD RECORDER, which comes with DVD MOVIEFACTORY 6 (free trial, $80 to buy).
BDAV worked well from SONY V1-U burning to MATSHITA BD-MLT SW-5582 and played perfectly in new SAMSUNG 1200 palyer on my 57" DLP.
TIP - install BOOTCAMP et al on its own HD, and use NTFS... This will come in handy when doing a BDAV from a file such as HDV1080 that is larger than 4GB.
To do BDMV, you'll need SONIC DVD-IT PRO HD ($499) which I have yet to try...
Frustrating process, but kinda cool to figure it all out, especially when NOBODY in sales at any of these places seems to have a clue.
So there you go - must be possible

Blu-ray disc chapter buttons not working on authored disc.

Hi all,
I've created many SD dvd's with chapter menus without problem. However, my first attempt at a blu-ray disc is causing me trouble.
I'm running Enore CS4 under Windows 7. I had to install the "pxengine4_18_16a" driver because Encore CS4 was hanging up when i selected the "BLU-RAY" format under the Build tab. After i got Encore CS4 working, i started assembling the BD video.
I linked all of the chapter menu buttons to chapter playlists pointing to single chapter points in the timline. I tested the BD in Preview. It shows that the menu buttons are linked properly and are functioning. However, the authored BD disc isn't playing the chapters after selecting the chapter menu buttons. All of the other BD disc buttons work like; PLAY ALL, RESUME, MENU, MAIN MENU, just not the actual buttons that play the various chapter points on the timeline.
Is this a result of installing the "pxengine4_18_16a" driver or something else?
Has anyone encountered this problem with BD authoring?

The BD is not playing properly on the pc or a standalone?
I test BD first as an iso with Power dvd ultra with Virtual Clone DVD.
If the menu works properly its the standalone, might burn with a lower speed.
When dvd came out first there was a lot of incompatibilities, history is repeating itself.

Go to next chapter not working with Blu-ray disc

I’m using Adobe Encore CS 5 to create Blu-ray disc but when the disc is created the go to next chapter buttons do not work. In Encore when using the preview option the go to next chapter buttons do work but once the Blu-ray is created and I try to go to next chapter while playing the disc I receive a message that reads "operation not available". I have created multiple Blu-Ray projects, used different brand Blu-ray media and even used my Windows system and my Mac system but the same issue keeps happening. I’ve also played the Blu-ray on multiple Blu-ray players and it happens on all of them. The Blu-ray burner I’m using is a LG BE14NU40 External Blu-ray burner and I have contacted them but they tell me it is a problem with Encore not the burner.

Google "encore blu-ray next chapter remote".
Example: Re: Encore 5 "Next / Forward" Button Not Available For Blu-Ray?
You'll find lots of issues. This function may work if the project is very simple. But perhaps not.
You might post a screenshot of your flowchart.

I want to burn a blu ray disc from PP CC 2014 and do not have the Encore application. Is there a way to do that?

Here's a free non-Adobe solution as well. It's definitely got a steep learning curve compared to Encore, but from my understanding so far, it may also be more capable. (And it's still being developed, unlike Encore which is dead software.)

I created an iMovie with photos, music and titles; shared it with the media browser and burned it on a DV+RDL. The disc will play on my MacBook Pro, but it will not play on my Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player or a smaller portable DVD player. Why?

Probably because they don't accept that media.
Try using Verbatim DVD+DL (if your project exceeds 2 hours) or Verbatim DVD-R if it doesn't.
