Apple Blu Ray?

[Vincent Strader] “One person told me that even if I was still doing Standard DVDs that BluRay players were backwards compatible to play all DVDs even HD-DVDs. Is this correct?”
Yes on standard DVD’s. No on HD-DVD.
Only invest in BluRay when you absolutely need to, not before. It’s an expensive investment. We’ve already duplicated forty discs for four titles and are about to release a 5 part broadcast HD series on BluRay. Our investment has paid for itself already, but I did not purchase anything until the first client asked me for the service.

[Vincent Strader] “Adobe Encore is Apple compatible
Adobe FLASH is Apple compatible.
I’m sorry to switch topics, but why did Apple not keep Adobe Premiere? Im I strange in thinking it’s strange that all these other Adobe programs work with Apple, but Premiere does not?”
Apple never owned Premiere.
Premiere does work on the Mac, has done so for about two years now.
I think you really need to sit down and do some research on what does and does not work on a Mac and definitely what it will entail to produce BluRay discs on your own.

[Vincent Strader] “And the first person to reply said something about compressing HD down to BluRay. I thought BluRay was higher than HD. Why would HD need to be compressed to BR?”
Like Walter said you REALLY need to sit down and do some research and get some basic under standing of things down.
BlueRay is not higher then HD, BlueRay is simply a disk media format like a CD or DVD. BlueRay compares to a DVD like a DVD compares to a CD, it simply just holds more data nothing more then that. It is SIMPLY a disk that holds a lot of data. Because it holds a lot more data then a DVD will, it makes it possible to put a HD movie on to the disk in a format that can be played on a set top player. BlueRay it self is not a video format persay, but a way of delivering your HD video content.
BlueRay is simply a disk that holds data, like a DVD or CD holds data. A BlueRay DVD video is simply a high quality video that is put on to that large capacity disk. And because the disk has a high capacity it is capable of storing a feature length or longer HD video.
There are no “technical solutions” to your “artistic problems”.
Don’t let technology get in the way of your creativity! -

2K and 4K are higher than HD. BluRay is a compressed form of HD, just like DVCPro HD and HDV.
