Authoring a Blu Ray

Post by LeperMessiah26 »

Hey all, I have authored and synced loads of SD shows to dvd, but I have never worked with HD files.

I found some old Linkin Park HD files yesterday, and would love to make a blu ray from them, but I hear its a bit more complicated than regular dvd authoring.

A few questions...

1. What are the best settings to use in Sony Vegas, for rendering.....for example, if I wanted to make a mix, to keep the show full HD with no quality loss?
2. I doubt dvd lab pro 2 can author Blu Ray, so what authoring tool is best? Easy and simple the better.
3. Menus, what settings would I need to use in Photoshop for Blu Ray menus?

Not sure what else to ask, so please make any suggestions, and give tips if you can.Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks for reading
Michael

I have an authoring question.

I made a few Blu Rays, sent them off, but have put the wrong credits on the credits pages.
Is it possible after re authoring, to just extract the relevant files, upload them to who needs them, he then, can overwrite the old files with the new, and that would work?!

Long shot I know, but it does not hurt to ask!!!

I think you have to re-authoring the BR's with the right credits! If you deleted the project you have a long way to do all shit again!!! Had have also that problem one time

Yeah, I know I would need to reauthor the Blu Ray, I meant after the reauthoring. Can I THEN, extract the corrected menu files from the BD folder, send them, he then REPLACES, the files in his BD folder, and then would everything be corrected? I´m not sure at all!

It makes no difference now, but just for future reference :D

I don't see why it wouldn't work since it works for DVDs. You should be easily able to test it by making a backup copy of the original files and then replacing them with the new ones.

Never EVER, use Nero to author anything, it´s rubbish. Try TMPGenc Authoring Works 4.....it is fantastic for Blu Ray or DVD.
