I read it that way too but figured thats all part of the new licensing structure as well.

Would be interesting to find out. It looks like it’s really aimed at getting $50 no-name BluRay players out there.

Hi Walter

I’m assuming this is somewhere else in the “cow” so if you know please give me a pointer. I’m on the verge on going BD and on eof the little details that got me thinking is the packaging. BD as you know commercially have these blue semi transparent cases with the BD logo at the top, so the cover inserts only fill about 4/5 of the case, the cases are also shorter. Have you been using using these cases or a variation of them?

Also (and this is probably not my smartest moment) how have you been transferring your mgeg2 files from the MacOS to Windows? Does windows recognise MacOS X formatted ext drives?

Cheers

we’re using the actual BluRay cases, yes.

Doesn’t need to be a Mac formatted drives since the Mac can read Windows drives. But since most of our files are over 2GB, we just installed Mac Drive on the Windows machine so Mac based drives just pop up.

Thanks for your reply Walter!

With the Bluray cases do you have to be licences to use, as thay have the BD logo at the top? Also do you use the BD logo in you art and if so dose this have a licence fee?

I’m looking at Sonics DVDit HD for my turn on the band wagon, have you any advice regarding this program? Would you still use compressor to make the .m2v file?

Cheers
