  • H.264 Blu-Ray vs. H.264 which will play on more Blu-Ray players

    Hi,

    I was told that H.264 is a Universal format, but to make it play to Blu-Ray standards, you must use H.264 Blu-Ray. If not, it may not play in all Blu-Ray type players.

    The same goes for MPEG-2 Vs. MPEG-2 DVD.

    Is this true.

    Premiere Pro CS 5.5
    Encore 5.5
    Media Encoder 5

    Power Mac Intel Xeon
    10GB RAM

    Yes, you need to use one of the Bluray presets to make a compatible BD-R.

    You’d be better off with the MPEG-2 Bluray preset.

    The .h264 comes in handy if you need more compression to make a program fit. But the quality will take a slight hit.
