How can I watch my Blu-ray discs on the iPad?

Hello guys,
I got some Blu-ray movies and I want to watch them on my iPad, could you tell me some good tools which can help me ?

It is going to be very difficult, if at all possible.
First, is getting the content accessible to the iPad. Have yet to see a BD player that can be connected to it.
Then, getting it to read, decode and display the content. The App Store shows absolutely no app that could do it. VLC can on a PC or Mac, but it requires additional software not on the iPad platform.
Lastly, where are you going to store the content? Each title is tens of GB's in size.

Can not burn a Blu-ray disc

The problem: Can not burn a Blu-ray disc.
I open Premiere Elements 12 and load my project and then go to “publish and share” my project, I select "create Disc – Burn DVD, Blu-ray and AVCHD disc", I select "Blu-ray", the disc location and settings box opens and the “status” setting indicates "Media not present”. I know the Pioneer Blu-ray BDR-2208 drive works properly because I have already published regular DVDs in it and had no problems. I thought perhaps it was a problem with the initializing of the disc whether you choose (Mastered) as opposed to (Live File System). Neither works. I tired Phillips BD-R disc & Memorex BD-RE disc, neither works. The only thing I noticed was the burner location setting is indicating a Pioneer BDR-208M burner rather than a Pioneer BDR-2208 burner. Could this be the problem? Remember that burner will burn regular DVD's. Does Premiere Elements 12 require some other additional software on my computer to burn a Blu-ray disc? Also is there a list of compatible Blu-ray burners? BTW I am using Windows 8.1.

Attached is a screenshot of the dialog box that opens up when I place a regular DVD or Blu-ray in my desktop computer.
In order for me to burn a DVD project in premiere elements if I do not initialize the disc with the above procedure I receive a media not present in the settings box of premiere elements. I assumed I have to do the same thing with a Blu-ray too. I've tried following this procedure, also tried using the live file system. Also tried putting a fresh disc in without doing anything to it and always receive the media not present in the status setting. One suggestion has been that another program is interfering with premiere elements. I will also go out and purchase some Verbatim BD-RE disc, whether they work right now or not I can always use them later after I solve my problem.
I Have a lot of great suggestions from you guys and I really appreciate it. I'm going to work on some of those today starting with loading imgburn and see if I can indeed burn a Blu-ray disc with my system. I have already created a AVCHD BDMV file on my computer and I will start with trying to work with that and see if that is successful and then come back to premiere elements. I appreciate the input regarding Cyberlink software. I have version 8 (came with my Pioneer Blu-ray Drive) and was thinking about upgrading to the latest version but with your input regarding Power Producer I will save my money.
Another thought I had, with Blu-ray disc burners being as cheap as they are purchase one that has been proven to work with premiere elements 12.1. Time is money, the cost of a new Blu-ray burner is insignificant. I will consider this option later.

Search any of the iPad, iPhone or iPod touch forums for "flash". You'll find a number of threads on the issue with suggestions for alternative app/service combinations that allow viewing of some Flash content.

How can i do to upload my movies from the ipad to the i cloud?

How can i do to upload my movies from the ipad to the i cloud?

If these are videos taken with your iPad, you can only add them to iCloud by adding them to a shared stream, as discussed here: http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99.
If these were movies purchased from the iTunes store, they are already in iCloud and can be redownloaded again in many countries for free as long as the movie is still available and the studio allows it. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 and iTunes in the cloud availability by country here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085.
To be safe, import them to your iTunes library so you know you have them. To do this, connect your iPad to your computer, open iTuens and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. Then you can sync them back to your iPad later if you ever need to.

Sorry, I don't mean to appear rude, but I don't understand the question. What do you mean "how do you call"? You pick up the telphone and call the store's number, just as you would any other person or company.
None of the Apple Stores have on-line chat.

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

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.

TouchSmart IQ816 can no longer play Blu Ray discs

For the last 5 months or so my TouchSmart has not been able to play my blu ray movies. I was told that this was a problem with an update of the MediaSmart DVD program. I had this same issue on my HDX18; I uninstalled MediaSmart DVD and reinstalled it to roll back the version. However, this did not work with my TouchSmart, and subsequent updates have not remedied this issue. It can still play DVDs and CDs just fine, but it no longer picks up blu ray discs. I have read various forums, and many people have had this same issue, some even resorting to a factory reset; I cannot afford to do that. I have heard that it is an underlying problem with the Cyberlink software that runs beneath the MediaSmart software, and even cases of HP support telling customers that they should BUY the updated Cyberlink software. When I purchase a computer , I am not expecting to pay extra for features that should have come built in. I have an Optiarc BD DRV BC-5600S.

Rob,
Not sure which OS you are running, but there is an updated version of the player software for Win7 that might make a difference...

Otherwise, you could try uninstalling the application, and reinstalling it from application recovery.

Can't write to Blue-ray Disc

After experiencing failures attempting to perform an 18GB data backup to CD or DVD using almost every backup program on the market, I decided to try using Vista Live File System to a Blue-ray disc. While I can use Vista's Live File System to write CDs & DVDs, I get the error "Windows can't write to the disc you inserted...". Has anyone seen this issue and found a solution? My Blue disk drive shows as: HL-DT-ST BD-RE GGW-H20N ATA Device.
Thanks in advance, Gary

Yep! And so far, I can't use it. Neither can I use any commercial backup program to write to either (yes, I have 2) optical drive, CD, DVD or BD inserted. Silly me...expecting all this to work right out of the box!

How do I finalize a Blue Ray disc?

It seems I am successfully exporting my footage to my Blue Ray writer but the steps seem to end there. When I place my disc in my player it can't read it. I feel there needs to be a "finalizing" but I'm not getting prompted. And advice?

Did not mention in earlier post: Any time you have a burning issue with Encore, try building to an image and burning with a third party app. ImgBurn for PC is popular; Toast for Mac.
Here is an example of a Bluray disk structure:

How do I burn a Blu-Ray disc with menus?

I have a 38 minute project comprised mostly of HD clips (.m2ts, .MP4 and a few .MPG). I try to render the project to Blu-Ray with Premiere Elements 12, it takes approximately an hour to reach 98% with message "Encoding Media", then switches to "Compiling Media" and freezes there (I let it go for 6 hours with no end in sight). Task Manager shows that it is not using any CPU cycles anymore, while it was using up to 96% of the CPU before it reached that point. I've been able to render this project to a DVD, to Folders on my HDD and to AVCHD successfully on a DVD.
For a test, I tried a 1 minute project with the same results. It wasn't until I removed the disc menu that I was able to burn a Blu-Ray disc. I am running project on a PC with Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit, an AMD Athlon II x4 635 Processor, 2900 Mhz, 4 cores, 4 logical processors with 4 GB of RAM. I have found a number of references to the 98% completion but no real solutions. Any assistance would be appreciated as I would like to produce a high definition disc with menus...

ATR and jerry9146, thanks for the replies. I am using version 12 of Premiere and, when I attempt to update, it tells me that I have the latest version. I am fairly new to Premiere although I have used other video software before. My motherboard supports up to 16 GB (4 slots) so I could try increasing the memory which would probably speed up the rendering process. I'm not so sure that not having enough memory would prevent it from completing the rendering process but who knows. Task Manager shows CPU usage in the high 90% and shows physical memory in the mid 50% during the rendering process...
My software always finds the media and lets me know if I have the wrong disc in (I had inadvertently inserted a DVD instead). I have tried both H.264 1440x1080i NTSC Dolby and H.264 1920x1080i NTSC Dolby. It does not have a choice for 1080p full HD.
I always cancel out of the Windows popup asking "How do you want to use this disc?" as I assume that Premiere will let the system know. Is that correct?
The movie menu that I chose for this project is a fairly simple one, Faux Widescreen from the General category. It contains 1 main menu and 3 scene menu pages containing a total of 17 scene markers which I inserted myself with Add Marker.
I had already taken out the Stop marker as I had read that it doesn't work for Blu-Ray anyways (and thought that that might have been the culprit). Spacing is good and there is no button overlap.
jerry9146, I have successfully burned an AVCHD file to a DVD thru Premiere and the quality is pretty good. Does the workaround that you suggest produce a Blu-Ray quality file?
