Looking for a external blu ray dvd burner for my mac

looking for a external blu ray dvd burner for my mac

There are plenty of options but I have found that the LaCie d2 http://blu-ray.burnworld.com/burners/lacie-d2.htm works more consistantly. I use Toast 11 mainly for Blu-Ray. The drive does come with a basic verison of the software which is good for most but you need to upgrade to do some serious authoring.

Can a external Blue Ray drive work with a MacBook Pro with Snow Lepard?

I am thinking about purchasing a Blu-Ray external drive so I would be able to watch BR on my MBP.
LG - 8x External USB 2.0 Blu-ray Disc Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive.
If anyone can give me a answer, it would be appreciated. Thank you.

Sorry, I have a 13" MacBook Pro, Mid 2010. I am running Snow Lepard.

Looking for a good Blue Ray Burner for Imac

Hi. I wonder if this idea is possible. I'm working with my Canon XL1 in parties, Events, etc and editing in my Imac 24 inch with Final Cut Express Pro. I wonder if it's possible to finish projects in 100 minutes length from XL1 with 20 to 25 GB each clip, export in 1280x720 (or better) to get HD, and Burn in BLue RAY with very clear results to show in a 52 inch plasma T.V HD 1080. If this is possible (or look alike HD) I wonder which Blue Ray burner will you recommend me for the task.
Thanks for your answers.
Best Regards.

Hi Skalicki. The reason why i asked that, it's because I made some test and what I saw in a 50 HD TV was very confusing. I made a party, I used 7 cassettes and in the final file that was 24 GB I made quicktime Movie, and of course with such a huge file, I burned that in IDVD with a 4.2 GB dvd. In a little T.V is awesome, in a 52 inch HD is awful. Another test, with Xl1, a short 10 minutes clip, burned in IDVD in h264 with 1280x720 HD is very good in the same T.V. What I understand for the test is: If a big clip (90' or more) remains uncompressed and it's burned in HD (mean BLUE RAY for a 90 minutes file), the properties remains intact and the XL1 becomes a look alike HD. The truth is: I wonder if this reasoning is right or not, but until now it's all what I understand.
Thanks again for your help.

Only two devices on our plan, so not so much an issue. And I have found myself using it much more than I thought I would when we got them (also first smart phones for both of us). Even got my wife to use hers for checking email while we were out of the country (big step forward for her ). I'm very interested in the ApplePay, but will want to wait a bit before diving into it. And since both phones are still in great working order, will likely wait a bit for the upgrade (sometime next year?). Will depend, I suppose, on the kinds of deals we see and what the plans turn out to be for updating my iPad and getting here one.

Looking for a gaming controller that will work with iMac

I'm not really into gaming, but I just bought a game and right now I have to use the keyboard keys and I'm finding it to be a not so enjoyable gaming experience. So I would like to purchase a gaming controller.... does anyone have any recommendations on ones that work for the IMac?
Thanks!

I second the logitech rumblepad 2. I have the cordless version. Works like a charm, I had a 3rd party system preference pane for changing the buttons, I used it once to set up, the buttons didn't really do what I said, could well have been me not doing it right.
I had the 3rd part pane because I couldn't get it set up in Need For Speed Carbon, but now it works perfectly on its own.

Looking for a WiFi printer that will work with my Nexus WiFi hotspot

On a recommendation, we have bought an Epson NX530 WiFi-enabled printer. It does not work with the WiFi hotspot feature of my Galaxy Nexus. The support tech at Epson suggested that we get a WiFi router rather than trying to use the Galaxy Nexus. I told her that I would rather trash the NX530 and get a printer that would work with my phone.
So we have 3 questions:
1) does anyone know how to make an Epson NX530 work via the Galaxy Nexus hotspot?
2) does anyone know of a different WiFi enabled printer that works with the Galaxy Nexus?
3) does anyone know if the Galaxy Nexus is inherently unable to work with any WiFi printer?
Thanks,
Craig

This website should be able to assist you. http://www.galaxynexusforum.com/forum/galaxy-nexus-help/8520-wifi-printing.html I use an app called Printhand from the Google Play Store for my Android tablet and smart phones. I have a Canon Pixima 3220 that functions great. I also have a higher end HP Envy D410a that also works great with printhand. The Canon is cheap at BJ's at $40 when I bought it. The HP is about $269 at Staples and other outlets. Good Luck

What burner and software you would recommend for Blu-Ray disks authorizing with FCPX?

I am completely new to Mac world and is going to use FCPX on iMac 27" to produce BR disks. To do it, I have to buy

What would be your recommendation?

I use the same unit as Nolanscott.
The menus that FCP X has are pretty basic but the quality is good.
If you want to play back Bluray on your Mac you will also need Bluray Player software.
I use this and it works fine:

Any internal blu ray burner work with the early 2008?

I bought the Pioneer BDR 203- but it's SATA and Mac power/read cable hook up does not match.
The Mac pro early 2008 is ATA.

There are a couple of SATA ports on the main logic board below the optical drives. You can get an adapter for the power connector.

Best basic blu ray player

I just purchased an Internet Connectable LCD HDTV and am now looking for a good blu ray player. SInce, my TV already has Internet applications (i.e. Netflix) I really don't think my blu ray player needs to do anything else except play the media. Does anyone recommend any basic quality blu ray players? Do they exist?

OPPO
Don't waste your time with any player other than the ones from this company.
Seriously, they are that good. If you don't believe me, then check out www.hometheatermag.com This is one of the few places that truly review players and tell you which ones make the cut and which ones don't.
http://www.oppodigital.com/
Excellent video and audio, except that a newer model will have some streaming that the current models don't have.
www.audioadvisor.com carries them also.
I do not work for Best Buy and am not affiliated with them in any way. I like HT and want to help people improve their HT experience. "There is a LOT more than just having a TV to make a home theater"

Export to Blu-ray from Final Cut Pro 7 with LG BE12LU30 External Blu-ray

Hi all
I've got an iMac with Snow Leopard and I'm editing HD video in Final Cut Pro 7. I've created AVCHD discs on DVD to play in my Blu-ray player but now I want to create Blu-rays that will play in a regular Blu-ray player.
Has anyone got any experience of using the LG BE12LU30 External Blu-ray Re-Writer with FCP 7? I've checked other posts and it seems one user has had success with an earlier LG Model.
Basically if I connect this drive and use the Final Cut Blu-ray export option in share, will I be able to burn a playable Blu-ray?
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi I have one of those drives too .. I use FCP to edit export the movie using 'current settings' and then import that movie Compressor .. alternative I also have Toast with the Blu-Ray plugin .. it gives a nice menu template and works well. http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/plugin/overview.html

External Blu-Ray drive for HP Envy Lightscribe Issues

My HP Envy 13-1100ea came with an HP external Blu-Ray drive (HP Part No: 538333-001) which identifies itself as an Optiarc BD ROM BC-5600S. In the HP Envy 13 service manual it mentions this drive as having Lightscribe functionality but I cannot seem to get the drive to be detected by the Lightscribe Control Panel or any Lightscribe labelling software. I have tried installing the Lightscribe software (older version) from the HP product support page as well as the latest software and diagnostic utilities direct from the Lightscribe site but nothing has seemed to work so far. Has anyone had any success burning Lightscribe labels with this drive or have any advice that might get things working?

The drive has the following logo on the bottom plate:
Which looks quite similar to the lightscribe logo, although it's not exactly the same. The HP Envy 13 support page does not contain drivers for the optical drive and I can't seem to find a dedicated support page for the drive itself. I have tried uninstalling the default windows driver which it reinstalls when the drive is plugged in again. As I said before it has been communicated in various place that the drive features lightscribe functionality and I'd be pretty upset if it turns out it doesn't!

I have a late 2013 27" iMac, can anyone recommend a really good external blu-ray player?

Hi,
I recently purchased a stock late 2013 27" iMac and I'm looking to purchase a really good external blu-ray player. I would prefer a Samsung USB 3.0.
Thanks!

There are many solutions for watching BLU-RAY MOVIES on MAcs.
One is to download Bluray for Mac ... with a blueray player, this little player plays most bluerays perfectly.
You can download a trial for free here: http://www.macblurayplayer.com/
Second, You can get a program called MAKEMKV and use it in combination with VLC PLAYER to convert BLU-Ray to MKV format or STREAM from LOCAL NETWORK FAST to watch Blue Ray Free!!!!
GET MAKE MKV here: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/34693/makemkv
And VLC PLAYER HERE: http://download.cnet.com/VLC-Media-Player/3000-2139_4-10210434.html?tag=mncol;tx t
There are videos on YOU TUBE to show you how to use MAKEMKV and VLC together.
Also, I just purchased a SAMSUNG Ext. SLIM Bluray writer for under $100 that works great for playing and burning Bluray Disc!
Good Luck

Is it possible to connect an external blue ray drive via USB with a mac mini to watch HD videos?

Did you even read the article you linked to?
Here's a quote from it
"The video itself looked fine when it played properly, but it stopped and started constantly, and often displayed with huge, ugly artifacts. And at times, the app would freeze completely and require a force quit.
Just to make sure it wasn’t a problem with one Blu-ray disc, I tried some others. With Hot Tub Time Machine the results were much, much worse. It got a few seconds into the United Artists logo before the movie and completely froze playback. On several attempts. With David Cronenberg’s The Fly, playback was generally better—but the software played the ‘making of’ movie instead of the actual film. I thought there might have been a preference to help with the movie selection, but—wait for it—the Preferences item didn’t do anything when I selected it."
Not very promising is it

Settings For HDV to Blu-ray and DVD

What is the best strategy for avoiding unnecessary rendering and transcoding issues? I edit HDV or AVCHD (from a DataVideo DN-60) in Premiere Pro CS6. I want to output to multiple formats - DVD, Blu-ray and Flash from the same project. I'd like to maximize quality as well to fit project on disk.
I'd also like to know which format most easily transcodes for my purposes. I typically shoot 23.98 or 29.98 fps 1080p, but sometimes 1080i.
I assume Dynamic Link is the way to go, but it doesn't look like the resulting settings are automatic. For example, if I go into project settings after Dynamic Linking a PPro sequence, and choose Blu-ray, I would expect the transcode settings to match the imported project. If it does not, then what should I change the default settings to?

Let me clarify the intent of my original post. I have read in places that it is best to choose export and DVD project settings that match the original footage whenever possible to avoid rendering problems. So, if I shoot and edit HDV or AVCHD footage say at 29.98 fps progressive, then what corresponding settings should I use for DVD and Blu-ray?
I see that with 29.97 fps the progressive option is not available in the Blu-ray
presets. Should I not shoot progressive then at 29.97?
How do I maximize quality of the video while fitting on a single disk? The only way to do it automatically is to Dynamic link, which you advise against. If I manually set exports, then I must calculate all the sequence outputs from Premiere. What then should my priorities be? For starters, MPEG2 Blu-ray or H.264 Blu-ray? What should take precedence, bitrate settings or number of passes?
I am also considering render/transcode speed. How do the above settings affect speed?
