Hi everyone,
I'm running into issues with Blu-rays that I've burned with ImgBurn and created with DVDFab.
The issue is that the disc is not recognized on the standalone Sony player, which is plugged into the TV. It does work fine on my PC, though.
Here are the steps that led me here:
1. Created the movie and mastered a ProRes 422 .mov file
2. Inserted this file into DVDFab's "UHD Creator" and added my subtitles. Then, I rendered and created an ISO file, which I saved on my PC. These are the settings I used:
3. Opened ImgBurn in Burn mode and set Write Speed to 3x, as someone said this might cause the problem. Checked the verify button.
4. After burn and verify, the disc plays wonderfully on my PC, but not on the standalone. When inserting it there, it goes blank for a second and then returns to the player's menu.
This is what ImgBurn says about the disc on the right hand side:

Also, I'm using 25gb discs with a 4x write speed. And I'm taking a 2160p video file and crating a 2160p Blu Ray out of it.
Does anybody have any ideas what the issue could be? Is it likely to be a DVDFab creating problem or a ImgBurn burning Problem?
Or is it neither and the non-4k-player just can't play a 2160p file?
My next step will be to try creating a folder with DVDFab instead of an ISO file. And then I will try creating a 1080p file instead and testing it with my player.
Cheers,
Leopold
