dvscanadian Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 Just a few short questions. First of all does anybody know why when I load my "BDMV" file to the build mode on "Write files/folders to Disc", in the information tab I get nothing, nothing regesters in that tab? I can burn the file though & when I do it burns all the way except when I try to play it in my stand alone Blu Ray player (Sharp BD HP20),with the latest firmware update in it as well, it does not play, I get the message "Cannot play this disc" Is it the player or me,lol. I am ripping the files with anydvd hd v6.4.6.8. I am using a LG GBW-H20L when burning & I am using BD-RE by Memorex. Also when I look at my files on my desktop in my "Stream folder" located inside my "BDMV" folder the files read MPEG-2 Transport Stream instead of M2ts, but when I play the files on my desktop when using Powerdvd in the player itself the file reads as it is playing M2ts, weird or what? Can anybody shed some light on this subject. Thank you to all in advance. Also I am a newbe to this whole Blu-ray thing.

LIGHTNING UK! Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 ok so what do you see on the disc when you first open it up? Just a BDMV folder and a CERTIFICATE one? Won't PowerDVD play it?
dvscanadian Posted November 1, 2008 Author Posted November 1, 2008 ok so what do you see on the disc when you first open it up? Just a BDMV folder and a CERTIFICATE one? Won't PowerDVD play it? Yes I see a BDMV Folder & a CERTIFICATE folder (which was generated after Imgburn burn it to the disc) & yes it plays on powerdvd but not on my stand alone BD player.

Yes I see a BDMV Folder & a CERTIFICATE folder (which was generated after Imgburn burn it to the disc) & yes it plays on powerdvd but not on my stand alone BD player. Also would it matter that my hard drive is set at FAT32 as I see some other people have theirs alocated to FAT ?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 Ideally your machine should be using NTFS, not FAT or FAT32.
dvscanadian Posted November 1, 2008 Author Posted November 1, 2008 Ideally your machine should be using NTFS, not FAT or FAT32. My bad I just doubled checked my "C" drive & it is set at NTFS, so do you think it is my stand alone BD player or did you see something in the burn log that caught your eye?
mmalves Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 Have you tried playing this disc on other bluray players? Like a friend's PS3 for example?

LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 It's impossible to say until you've tried a few different discs (with different dyes / MID's). If none of them work then it's probably the player. If some discs work and some don't then it's probably the discs (and a little bit of the player in that it doesn't support many dyes / MID's)

If some discs work and some don't then it's probably the discs (and a little bit of the player in that it doesn't support many dyes / MID's) Just finshed reading up on the dyes & it turns out that Pioneer and Mitsubishi have developed a method of creating recordable Blu-ray discs using an organic dye, which will significantly reduce the cost of manufacturing the high-definition media format.There will be a cut in costs as the new discs can be manufactured on modified CD and DVD production lines whereas, previously, BD-R discs could only be produced using inorganic dyes that required completely new manufacturing facilities.The unfortunate catch is that existing Blu-ray players will not be able to read the new discs, although it

K here goes nothing, I bought the Verbatim BD-RE disc & it worked in my borrowed Samsung BD-P1500 player no problem. Tried my Memorex burned disc as well in the player & to my suprise it played. So I tried the Verbatim BD-RE in my Sharp BD-HP20 & it didn't work & neither did the Memorex BR-RE. So my conclusion is that Sharp sucks when it comes to stand alone BD players. Don't buy sharp. Oh btw here is my burn log from the Verbatim BD-RE, hope somebody can learn from this, my only hope is that Sharp has a firmware update that will fix this problem sooner than later !!!! ; ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 - Log ; Saturday, 01 November 2008, 21:42:35 ; \\****************************************// ; ; I 20:36:29 ImgBurn Version 2.4.2.0 started!

shadowcaster Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) Is Imgburn able to change the booktype on BR-R/RE discs to BD-Rom? (I thought the op might have this problem) Because most SA players (like my Sammy 1400, won't play these discs, according to the manual) Will future releases of Imgburn have greater support for Blu-ray ?

LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 I'm not aware of any booktype commands for BD media. The drives need to support it before a program can make it happen.
shadowcaster Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 (edited) Thanks Lightning. Most SA players don't play BD-R/RE discs, so making backups of movies, at this point, is a no-go for most of us. Edit : Interestingly my older Samsung 1200 will play BD-R/RE Edited November 7, 2008 by shadowcaster
LIGHTNING UK! Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 The PS3 plays them too. How about the sony 350 model?
kevdriver Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Yea, the Sony S350 model will play BD discs made from any source as well as most other discs including CD-Rs.
shadowcaster Posted November 7, 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Maybe more players than I thought. It is strange that Sammy enabled that playbck in the earlier model 1200 and then disabled the ability in the newer 1400. Don't know about the newest model 1500. I suspect that more and more folks will be making backups of their Blu-ray discs as the price of the media and the burners continue to decline. Especially with the pain of keeping up with FW updates on the SA's, in order to play new releases w/o problems. Samsung's are notorious for this.
nwg Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 (edited) I have a Blu Ray question. If AnyDVD is used to rip a BD to a ISO image for burning to a 50GB BD-RE. How would Imgburn handle the layer change? Edited December 8, 2008 by nwg
