Basic Renderring Q
Up until now all my rendering for DVD has been standard MPEG2 (SD) DVD’s …. all successfully completed.
I have MSP 12 … and it has option in templates to render MainConcept HD Video (as well as Blu-Ray)
As my source material is HD … 1920×1080,32, 25fpsDoes that mean I can use HD video template adjust to match source media … and render (elementary streams) and this if placed on a DVD will play on a standard DVD player ?
Or will standard DVD player be unable to handle 1920 x 1080 ?
Or do I have to down scale to 720 x 576I know a Blu-Ray discs will offer me more space, but if a Type 5 disc will allow fit of Render would be better choice when creating discs for others many do not have Blu-Ray players.
Or am I thinking erroneously. -

No. You will need a Blu-ray burner on your PC and a Blu-ray player on your HD TV in order to create and watch Blu-ray discs. Your 10 year old DVD technology has no idea what HD is.

While you can burn Blu-ray “format” onto DVD “media”, what you will get is a Blu-ray disc which will require a Blu-ray player to watch. Neither your PC DVD burner nor your DVD player will be able to read it once it’s created.

Erroneously, yet very creatively! 😉
