  m2v to HD-DVD

  Posted by Brigitta Boccoli on September 18, 2008 at 5:19 pm

  Hi,
  i shot a movie in HDV 720p24 with a JVC HD100U.
  The camera compresses the HD input from the CCD unto an mpeg m2v file, in order to use miniDV tapes as recording media.

  So I was wondering… can I use directly the m2v file captured from the camera to burn an HD-DVD, or a Blue Ray DVD. If not… any solution?

  I am trying to avoid Apple compressor (it generates noise on the blacks and movements)
  and BitVice does not support HD sized footage yet.

  Compression houses would charge $1200 for the first copy in Blue Ray of the project (87mins)…
  please help!

  Thanks for the help!

  Check out Toast 9 and the HD-BD plug in. See my Posts….
  It works for AVCHD files direct to the Blu-ray, It might work with your files, but the re-encoding does take a quality hit

  Have a look at MPEG Streamclip from Squared5
