Burning blue ray folder

I use Pre7 and still cannot successfully do the workaround, burning a folder to blue ray disk. I use imgburn. Ive downloaded roxio creator no luck. Even tried iso file it still comes out as data. I even have Steves book. When I burn a small project to blueray from Pre7 it works fine but a large project it doesn't make it.

The Premiere Elements forum is where you need to post. This is for the early program, Premiere, before it became PrPro.
It is my understanding that PrE 7 will not Burn to Folder with a BD Project. Now, PrPro CS4.1 & Encore can, but that is not a viable workaround.
When you post to the PrE forum, or when the MOD's move this thread, you might want to state the full details of the "workaround," that you attempted.
Good luck,

No option to select Blu-Ray folder as source when trying to burn to Blu-ray disc

Hello,
I've created a project at home that I want to put on Blu-Ray. At home I don't have a Blu-Ray burner so I created a Blu-Ray Folder in Encore and brought over to a friends house to burn using Encore. But in Encore it doesn't have the option to select Blu-Ray Folder as a Source, only current project or disc image. I know when doing this with a DVD it gives the option for current project, disc image AND DVD folder. Why not for Blu-Ray? Anything I can do with out having to redo as a Blu-Ray disc image? Thank you

Can't speak for Blu-ray, but with DVD, it is very important that the disc be burned as "DVD Video". For instance in Windows, if you simply drag the VIDEO_TS folder to a blank disc and burn as "Data", it is not going to play in most DVD players.
A computer will usually recognize the content of the disc as being DVD material and will likely play it. But DVD players are expecting a disc formatted a certain way, which a data disc is NOT, and therefore will not play the "data" disc.
A lot of the newer DVD players will play more types of media, such as MP3 and stuff, so possibly more of them would now recognize a VIDEO_TS folder on a data disc, but to do it right, you must burn as a DVD Video.
Most disc burning software will offer options of "DATA" or "DVD VIDEO" because there IS a difference in track layout, and there is special info written to disc that identifies it as a "DVD" also.
In the case of creating a Disc Image, or .iso file, from Encore, then that is a "snapshot" of the DVD with all the right stuff in place, so any software that can use an .iso will make a proper DVD. But again, you cannot just burn the .iso file straight to a disc as data, the software must be capable of creating a disc from an Image.
Hope this makes sense
Thanks

Can't Burn Blu-Ray

I recently filmed a wedding, edited in Premiere CS5, and encoded to MPEG-Blu-Ray (.m2v files). I created a project in Encore CS5 and clicked Build when I was ready. After it built the menus, it tried to begin the burn. However, before it began, I received a "Blue-ray Error device not ready Code 3 note AS storage error -97060" message. There is hardly anything online about this. I have a Pioneer BDR-206 12x burner, and am using Verbatim 25GB BD-R discs. I also tried some Optical Quantum 25GB 4x discs, with the same error. I then updated the firmware of the burner. The project is only 14GB. I've heard that having long file names can sometimes mess things up, but all mine are less than 10 characters. I also tried building a blu-ray folder, and burning that in Nero 10, but still got the same results. My guess is that it's the burner, but I can successfully burn DVDs with it. I've also used the same verbatim discs successfully. I can't even do a disk error check in windows, because of a non-descriptive error. I wish there were more on this error in the manual. Any feedback would be appreciated!

Some reading that MAY help
As well as the below, right click the Encore icon and select Run as Administrator, which is NOT the same thing as running the computer with the Administrator account, and which fixes several "odd" problems
To create a dual layer DVD (or BluRay?), you MUST have Encore set to use the Run as Administrator option

Can you burn Blu-Ray on a standard DVD?

I know Encore won't build a Blu-Ray movie to a DVD disc but I've seen some ppl say you can use the freeware program ImageBurn to burn the Encore build to a standard DVD as long as its small enough to fit.
The reason why I want to do it is make short HD demos of my video work on a standard DVD that can be viewed on a Blu-Ray player. DVD media is a lot cheaper than BR 50 cents vs $10 a disc and I aslo don't own blu-ray burner. For longer videos I can use a Dual Layer DVD for clients who want a HD option.
Some ppl say absolutely no, while other say yes. Someone outlined how to do it but it didn't work for me, although I only used the last part of the instructions to burn because I was using Encore to build folder or iso, while the instructions are intended for ppl ripping a retail Blu-Ray.

I'm filmed my own legit HD content, encoding it as the proper mpeg-2 blu-ray format, authored it in Encore CS3, built a blu-ray folder or iso, and using ImageBurn to wrote it to a standard DVD. All of that worked but when I took it to Best Buy their Blu-Ray player wouldn't recognize the DVD.

For what it's worth, I've been able to burn an ENcore BluRay .iso and then used Imgburn to burn the .iso to a regular DVD and it played on a SONY BDP S300.
Sometimes the firmware in the player has to be updated.

Use a Blu Ray Folder instead of an .ISO file in Encore CS 5.1

Hi,
After struggling for the past 2 days to make a Blu-Ray .ISO file from Encore CS 5.1 and only getting "Code 25 Out of space messages", I made a Blu-Ray Folder and it worked perfectly. I then burned it using Roxio Toast 11 and it burned great. I tested it and everything works fine.
I will be making a Blu-Ray Folder from now on.
There is some kind of bug in Encore CS 5.1 that makes it almost impossible to make a Blu-Ray .ISO file.
I wish I had know that 2 days ago before I started trying to make an .ISO file.
Oh Well, You Learn something new everyday..
Thanks

Trying to burn Blu-ray on Power PC G5

Does anyone make a Blu-ray video authoring software program that does not require an Intel processor? I'm trying to use Roxio's Toast 10 with BD/HD Plug-in but is is not working.
I have a Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5 running OSX 10.5.8 (Leopard) with 10 GB of Ram and Final Cut Studio 2 (Final Cut Pro 6.0.4)
My Blu-ray burner is a LaCie d2 Firewire drive.

My Toast 10 now works in burning Blu-ray video. I've learned from other posts that there was a problem when I updated to QuickTime 7.7 in that certain video file types were no longer recognized. Unfortunately you just can't install an earlier version over the newer version the traditional way.
I've learned however that there is a way to install an earlier version of QuickTime (in my case QT 7.6.4 without completely re-loading the Operating System software (Leopard for me).
There's a Shareware program called Pacifist which takes elements from the earlier QuickTime installer and replaces the newer versions problem files. The QuickTime version # still says your current version but the elements have changed. See this link for how to do this:
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/blog/posts/using_pacifist_to_downgrade_quicktime .html
After rebooting, the QuickTime Player (and more importantly Final Cut Pro) supported all the video files. Toast 10 still had a problem until I trashed the Toast plist and pref files in the User>Library>Preferences folder and then re-installed Toast 10.0.9. Now everything works!
I still want to buy a better Blu-ray authoring program because the menus in Toast are so basic.

Playing blu-ray folder or ISO from Encore

I am trying to stop burning blu-ray disc and use the folder from Encore to be my final output. ALternatively, I may convert the folder into ISO for easy management. My questions:
1. what software player can play Encore generated blu-ray folder in PC? I tried some but none of them play the menu. Some can only play the first two chapters and totally missing the rest, though my project works fine in Encore preview.
2. what PC software to be used to convert the folder to ISO? Some media players declared that they can play DVD/BD ISO. Anybody can name a few that are good at BD?

We always build an image with Encore, then use Virtual CloneDrive to mount the image, and TotalMedia Theatre to play back the image. For Blu-ray replication, we build to a folder in Encore, then use Blustreak Tracer CMF to prepare the BDCMF files.
I highly recommend Total Media Theatre over the other software players, such as Power DVD, as it is designed to be spec compliance, meaning that what you see and interact with on the screen is exactly how it should on a hardware player. Often times Power DVD has problems with certain titles or it doesn't navigate the same way a hardware player does... making it difficult to troubleshoot problems. If you go to the doom9 forums and read some posts from spec level authoring experts, they just about all use Total Media Theater as their software Blu-ray/DVD player. And yes, it can play directly from a folder, menus and all.

MacPro will burn dvds but won't burn blu-rays anymore?

I've been using Compressor (ver. 3) to burn blu-rays and dvds of my movie for several months just fine. A few days ago after opening my blu-ray project in Compressor it did the usual: tray opens and it says "Please insert blu-ray media…" I put a blank disk in (the same kind I've been using all along) and pushed the keyboard eject button to close the tray but it didn't move. I manually pushed the tray closed and I could hear it spin up several times and then it spit the disk back out. I repeated this several times with no luck. I tried different blu-ray media (didn't work). I tried burning a dvd and it DID work, so I'm thinking it's not the blu-ray drive. However I tried burning with Disk Utility and it wouldn't work. I also tried to make a blu-ray burn folder and it wouldn't work. It doesn't make sense that it can burn dvds but not blu-rays.
I'm not sure what else to do. I haven't upgraded (still on Lion). Would upgrading to Mavericks fix this? Everything's been working great so I didn't want to upgrade and mess it all up. I fear taking it to an Apple Store will cost more than purchasing a new blu-ray burner.
Any thoughts or advice? Thank you for your help!

Upgrade to Yosemite.

Welcome to the forum.
Other programs can be used to do what you want, either from inside PrE, or in a stand-alone.
Now, I do not know what might/might not be available for Mac, and some searching might be required, but users have recommended Phantom Drive, and another utility, with a similar name, that eludes me this AM. Those utilities basically tell PrE that a folder on the HDD is really a BD burner, and then PrE just goes about burning to that, thinking that it is burning to a BD burner. I am sure that something like that exists for the Mac.
Good luck,

Is it possible to create DVD Templates with Motion for burning Blue Ray DVDs from Final Cut Pro X?

Is it possible to create DVD Templates with Motion for burning Blue Ray DVDs from Final Cut Pro X?

What do i need to burn blu-rays?

Hello everyone. I'm new to Final Cut Pro, and Macs in general, so please bare with me. I'm a film student, and recently purchased a Canon XH-A1s and a Mac Pro with Final Cut Pro 6 to jump start my video production business.
My only problem is that i only have the ability to produce HD video, so when it comes to distribution, DVD is really not an option. I've heard with an upgrade to Final Cut Pro 7 that you can finally burn Blu-Rays without a third party application, just wondering if that was true.
I was planning on upgrading to Final Cut Pro 7, and purchasing an external, USB Blu-Ray read/write drive. Should everything work ok if i go down that route?
Thanks everyone,
-Billy

The Mac does not come with a Blu-ray burner. So you would be burning a Blu-ray compatible file to a standard DVD-5 or DVD-9. Neither of which are ideal for authoring Blu-ray content.
Do an exhaustive search online about Blu-ray authoring and disk creation. This is not something for the hobbyist video creator (and I say hobbyist in the sense that you're not creating thousands of copies for mass distribution, so no one take offense.)
Blu-ray is expensive and requires a lot of planning and prep to do it right. But you can't burn an official Blu-ray disc on a Mac as they stand. And, Compressor doesn't burn discs, it only creates files. DVD Studio Pro would be the app that would burn the Blu-ray disc, and DVDSP has not been upgraded since long before Blu-ray came on the scene.

Is my hl-dt-st bddvdrw gbc-h20l capable of burning Blu Ray discs (BD-R)?

Hello. I have a HP Pavilion Elite m9470 Desktop PC with an hl-dt-st bddvdrw gbc-h20l drive running Windows 7 Ultimate (the pc came originally with Vista). For the first time I tried to burn a Blu Ray disc BD-R in fact. When I loaded the disc into tray, the pc started trying to read the disc, without success for endless minutes. In fact the door could not open even manually - I had to restart the system to take the disc out.
I always thought that the specific drive was capable of not only reading but also burning Blu Rays - could someone let me know? Is it a matter of appropriate software?

You're welcome.
Click on support & driver links on the HP site, enter the complete model # of the PC, you will see a links for information pertaining to your PC, like: HP Pavilion Elite m9470gr Desktop PC Product Specifications

Why is it taking 8+ Days to write a Blu-ray folder, only to fail at the end?

I'm trying to write a blu-ray dvd and author it through Encore. I've done this in the past with no issues at all, but in the case of this particular project, it's been a complete nightmare from hell.
It took 8 DAYS... that's right... DAYS to transcode a 7 minute, 1hr 4min, and 30min file to a Blu-ray folder. And at the end of it all, I get a message that there has been a failure with Encore and cannot write the folder. I try to make sure that there is enough space on the disc, and I give the disc an extra 1.2g of space to work with.
I have never had this issue in the past until now, and I don't understand if this is a software issue or a computer issue. I tried using my old 2007 MacBook Pro to transcode and write the folder before I tried wasting time on a disc (made that mistake the first time). I don't know what to do, and there is no one that can give me definative answers. I need help if I'm going to be productive. Please...

I had used a Dynamic Link between my files and Encore. I've done it in the past without any issues. Adobe tech support actually told me that the "/" was the issue when building the disc, since my file read... "highlights/highlights.prpro ... I changed the name and no help.
~What did Encore show for your assets once imported to Encore? "Do not transcode" or what?
All the files didn't show anything in the properties for transcoded... either for DVD or Blu-ray. I actually took the time to edit the settings of each file to maximize its target bitrate while maintaining enough space on the disc. I believe I also changed the settings to MPEG-2 settings rather than my go-to H.264 setting. I think that might be an issue too.
I DID notice too that when I finally decided to build the disc, there was odd threads showing in the status bar. Stuff I've never seen like " cpt.csf.9/render/..." when the build was taking place.
I'm eager to simple leave everything alone and let Encore do everything by default just to see if that works.

Burning Blu-Ray: Sometimes successful / Sometimes not

I've been burning Blu-rays for the last couple of days. After a couple of burns, I get this message:
But, here's the deal:
I do indeed have a disk in the burner
I can't eject said disk (so the computer may "find it") without dismounting...
If I do unmount the burner, FCPX starts the burn process all over... with the same above message
A "cycle" ensues... until I restart--not just the app--but the computer.
Then... I'm good for a couple of burns before the cycle starts again.
Trouble shoots:
I've tried this across TWO different burners--two different brands, one NEW out of the box. Same result.
This has happened across TWO different projects in the same library
Anyone have any ideas?

Burning Blu-ray disks. Third party hardware needed?

I have read from earlier posts that it is not possible to burn Blu-ray© disks from DVDSP. Can third party hardware be purchased to burn such a disk having assembled the digital assets in DVDSP? Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your responses. I see that from DVD SP Late-Breaking news that'HD DVD projects authored by DVD SP 4.0.3 fully comply with the 1.0 version of he HD DVD specification...the new HD DVD standard. The disks will play on Apple DVD Player version 4.6.5 or later.
I haven't commited to the Blu-ray© player, just the Sony HD camcorder.
When the time comes, I will burn to a red laser disc per the Apple recommendation. And thanks for the Roxio link which makes it clear that a PC is needed for Blu-ray©
