i looked at the Matrox forum post that was linked, and there was talk of Level 4.0 vs. Level 4.2 and the last post by the Matrox Tech was that Level 4.2 won’t work. what is the difference? is there a downside to using 4.0? what Level does Compressor or Adobe Media encode?

i can’t believe they said that Encore doesnt work, so you should use Toast to author your BD discs. they really don’t get it.

and further, how do you author a play-only Blu-Ray in Toast when you have separate audio and video assets (H.264 and AC3 files)? it seems like it only accepts assets as single audio/video files. if there’s a way, i could skip using Encore for play-only Blu-Rays

thanks

Levels 4.0 goes to 20 Mbps
Levels 4.2 goes to 50 Mbps

I try again with Levels 4.0 and 4.2 and Encore continuos to “CRASH
“.

With Level 4.0 and 20 Mpbs i can import but Encore get very slow and keep CRASHING too.

I just both this card to accelerate the ENCODING, big mistake.

Hi all,

If you read the bug carefully (which is stated in the Release Notes), you’ll notice that its only an issue when you create a 1080i file with the MAX technology (Such as the CompressHD card or MXO2 MAX family of products) and try to bring this file into Adobe Encore (for Mac). In all other cases, with other burning and authoring programs, there are no issues with these MAX files. Once the Adobe Encore (for Mac) fix is completed; you’ll be able to use 1080i files in Adobe Encore.

Presently, if you absolutely need to work with 1080i and use Adobe Encore (for Mac), you will have this same, usually long encoding times. However, If this is not your case, then you can use any other program for 1080i or any other resolution for Adobe Encore.

I hope this helps in clarifying things.

Best regards,
Bassel

This is still happening.

I have the same problem now on a Mac Pro Quad running the latest version of compressor and cs4.

try to export h.264 with compressor with the “Blu-Ray template”
but it crashes Encore when trying to import assets.

Any ideas? I have Toast 9 with the blu-ray plug in.

I was hoping to do a nice menu in Encore.
