“Dude, where’s my Blu Ray?”
Posted by Jason Kapell on March 12, 2009 at 10:06 amSo, I’m having trouble getting good results on my blu ray burns. Here’s what I’m doing:
1. Import HD clip from Sony EX-1 card.
2. Prepare clip using Compressor set to mpeg2Jason Kapell replied 17 years, 1 month ago 3 Members · 3 Replies -

March 12, 2009 at 3:24 pmWhat were your bitrate settings? Did Encore transcode the clip? Both Encore and Compressor aren’t exactly great encoders so you might be expecting too much 🙂 One things for sure….dont expect quality like discs you see on stores shelves.

March 12, 2009 at 3:41 pmHD compression is still pretty tricky business. Even with 50-70K encoding systems, compressionist has to spend several days to tweak the encode after the base pass. There are dozens of settings that affect picture quality, while Encore or similar only gives you access to the bitrate.

March 12, 2009 at 3:43 pmI set it a the default bitrate for Program Stream and no Encore transcoding. Last night, a co-worker tried exporting from Premiere using H.264 blu-ray and the improvement is significant. We usually use FCP and Compressor (bought the Adobe suite just for the Encore).
However, now that Encore suddenly refuses to launch, it’s a moot point right now.
