Hd Dvd

[jkjalan]

I have some of my work in HD which I stored in mpeg2 format with 5.1 audio.

How do I burn them on a DVD-9 (normal Dual Layer DVD) without loosing on the HD and the 5.1 Dobly sound.

I don't have a blue-ray player, so burning them on a blue-ray doesn't really help.

Do I need to convert it to a video_ts folder option in order to 'cheat' Roxio 10?

 

My videos are 1990x1080

 

I have a PC as well, so I'm open to any suggestions : ) ... quality is everything.

 

Thanks guys

There has to be a solution.

 

1 What if I convert it to AVCHD 5.1 audio and then burn?

2 Burn as a blue-ray disc on a dvd-9? Is it possible and will I read on my Onkyo (HD DVD compatible).. and can my MacBook Pro burn a blue-ray format : )

 

3 What if I just burn the HD Mpeg2 5.1 to a DVD-9 .. my player should pick it up right?

4 What is a .ts file format?

 

Thanks sknis : )

I gave you the information in my first reply. NO 5.1; no HD unless you burn an AVCHD disc and play it on a Blu-ray player.

 

Yes, Toast will burn Blu-ray but you need a Blu-ray burner (and a player).

 

ts file format from Wikipedia.

Toast 9 with HD plugin can burn HD-DVD DVD-9 compatible 1920x1080i discs, I've done it and played it successfully on Toshiba players. I don't remember off hand if you can use/burn MPEG-2 source, but standard-wise there should be no problem. I am not in front of it, but you can check yourself, if you have Toast 9 with HD plugin. I have no idea about how you'd burn the 5+1 channel audio files. There is a way in the PC world, but I should not discuss it within this forum, try a search there. Toast 10 removed HD DVD support, after Toshiba abandoned the standard.

Can't.; it is the nature of the beast, not the program. Please read about SD and HD formats. SD is 480, HD is 720 or 1080. Never fear, you will see a big improvement over previous just because you are starting with better input. With an upconverting DVD player a standard disc will almost be 720.

 

No consumer Roxio program will do 5.1; the higher priced spreads will do a pass through. If quality and not price is important, look at DVDit.. It will do the audio pass through and the SD disc. Later when you get a Blu-ray player, you will be able to burn a AVCHD disc and when you get really rich, you can buy a Blue-ray burner.
