AVCHD to DVD for Blu-Ray Players
In picture motion browser from Sony you have the option to burn AVCHD files to DVD do be displayed on Blu-Ray burners in full HD(or at least the original format from the camera as far as I know). Is it possible to do this with Sony Vegas 8 pro? or DVDA?
I have a HDR-SR11 (recording in full HD mode 1920 x 1080i)
Computer using to render:
Q9300 quadcore 4GB RAM 2 RAIDED HD’s VISTA x64 nvidia 8800 GS
using Sony Vegas Pro 8 and the latest version of DVDA 4.5pro -

Yes, that is possible.
Can be done using DVD Architect pro 5.
I see where you have dvd architect 4.5, you need to download the latest
version 5 from the sony website to have full blue-ray functionalities.Steve Rhoden

Does that mean I can use my HD Sony Camera to film, import the files to Vegas and edit the footage, burn to DVD using DVD Arcitect 5.0 and it will be readable by Blu-Ray players? Or do I need a Blu-Ray burner and a Blu-Ray blank DVD?
Also, is it possible to burn all my videos to an HD DVD and then later (when Blu-Ray burners are more affordable) I can convert the HD DVDs to Blu-Ray and burn them to a Blu-Ray DVD?
Thanks!

Along this topic I think?
What is the difference between HD DVD and Blu Ray DVD besides the size of storage available on the disk? Is the quality the same?
Thanks.

Does your camera encode your videos in AVCHD? if it does you can create a AVCHD DVD which is basically a Hi-def copy that can play in a blu-ray player (burned on to a normal DVD). although the amount of stuff you can fit onto a DVD is extremely limited compared to a Blu-ray disk you can still surprisingly fit quite a bit of video onto a AVCHD DVD.
About your second question as long as you can rip the HD DVD data you should be able to rencode it using DVDA and VEGAS to blu-ray format.

First off as far as I know HD DVD is a dieing breed of media. Second the more storage space on your media the less encoding you will need to do in order to fit your Video onto the disc. And the menu functions/format on Blu-ray are a lot different and in my opinion better.
So as far as I know as long as you have enough room on the HD DVD for your video without re-encoding the quality should be very similar if not identical.
