HDV to Bluray

filip31337 posted 2009 Sep 28 07:24
Hello,

1) I've exported HDV (1440x1080@50i MPEG2 CBR 25Mbit from Canon XHA1) material from Premiere CS3 and received clip.m2v and clip.wav files.
2) I've imported clip.m2v and clip.wav to Encore CS3 and made bluray ISO 1440x1080@50i MPEG2 AC3 CBR 25Mbit (no video transcoding).

Is that bluray compatibile with bluray standard? Will it work on standalone bluray player?
Correct me if I'm wrong but I've heard that that 1440x1080@50i MPEG2 is not compatibile with bluray standard.
Should I export it as 1920x1080@50i MPEG2 (compatibile) or 1440x1080@50i AVC (compatibile)?

Best,
Filip

I guess it only AVC and VC-1 for that resolution. So I would try AVC instead.

See http://www.blu-raydisc.com/Assets/Downloadablefile/2b_bdrom_audio ... -15269.pdf (search for 1440)

Right, it's not *required* to work, according to the standard. Nonetheless, I've heard quite a few people say that just running HDV through tsMuxeR to get a Blu-ray disc folder and then burning this onto a BD-R[E] has resulted in a playable disc. Your mileage may vary, of course, and if you care about making a broadly-compatible disc, this is obviously not for you!

Also, in my experience, Encore just loves to transcode everything. Sometimes just changing the extension on the file name will make the differences between whether Encore thinks it needs to transcode something or not. :-/ Very flaky and quite irritating!

Thanks for the replies.
I've tested 1440x1080 MPEG and 1440x1080 AVC on WinDVD (mounting ISO via VirtualClone Drive) and they both play fine but for maximum compatibility with standalone players I'll go with AVC.

Best,
Filip
