720p24 to DVDA blu-ray without recompress?
I shoot a lot of 720p24 AVCHD. I can drop this footage directly into DVDA and it will prepare a blu-ray with recompressing. However, if I edit in Vegas 9c and render out to 720p24 AVC, DVDA wants to recompress it. If you have been able to render 720p24 out of Vegas for DVDA blu-ray, I sure would like to hear how you’re doing it.

Short answer; you can’t. It’s not supported.

Tnanks Spot. Of couse, not what I wanted to hear, especially since DVDA does apparently support it if I render from a different application. I do have followup questions:
1. I can create a custom template that appears to perfectly match one of the DVDA supported formats, but I still get the recompress. Is there any way you know of within DVDA5 to see a comparison of project and media properties so I could tell which property is out of compliance? This would be especially useful if you were using a 3rd party tool to create compliant video.
2. Are you aware of any video property inspectors (like the freeware VideoInspector)that I can use to inspect the AVC clip properties?
3. I believe a workflow that may work is render in Vegas using my custom 720p24 AVC template and take that clip to Encore CS4 which accepts it as legal. But I want to burn this short clip as blu-ray to standard DVD media, which Encore doesn’t support. If in Encore I prepare to blu-ray ISO image, can I then use DVDA to burn that ISO to DVD?
