  MAGIX recompressing for Blu-ray

  Posted by Robert Horton on November 10, 2018 at 1:55 pm

  I have a 1 hour video. I rendered using the MAGIX AVC/AAC MP4 format and the Blu-ray 1920×1080-50i video stream template. Here I have two options:

  First using the Mainconcept AVC encoder. This is fine and DVDA does not need to re-encode. However it takes 94 minutes to render.

  Second using the NV Encoder. Here in DVDA under Optimize Disc there is the message “Media is not compliant with this disc format”, so DVDA will take a long time to re-render the file. I used this as the render was much quicker at only 39 minutes.

  Has anyone else met this and any comments?

  Thanks

  The Blu-ray specification its very specific about what formats it supports. You can use MPEG2 or AVCHD. Not all MPEG4/AVC is AVCHD compliant. This is what DVD Architect is trying to tell you. Always render with the “DVD Architect” templates that are provided and you should be fine.

  Not for nothin’ but back in the day I have waited several hours for a DVD to render. Waiting 94 minutes for Blu-ray isn’t that bad.
