    I’m surprised no one mentioned that you can make Blu-ray discs right out of Final Cut Pro. Have you explored the “Share” protocol? I’ve burned 100 discs already with no issue.

    I’ve used FCP to burn AVCHD to DVDSP using the regular superdrive. Are you using a BD burner?

    Look up the new features of FCP7 and Compressor. For these BluRay disc you DO NOT go into DVDSP.

    Thanks, I ordered Toast 10 Pro.

    Just curious — will compressor allow you to burn Blu Ray content onto DVD media using a DVD burner that will reliably play in Blu Ray players? Never tried this but it could be a good bridge….

    Not sure, but Toast does it pretty effortlessly.

    Toast won’t burn you a BD that you can replicate from. I found that out the hard way.

    Hi Alan,

    We offer BluStreak Premaster for replication from both Toast and Encore (or any BD authoring application). It was released last May.

    I now have FCP7, Toast10 Pro, Panasonic burner BDR-205 on a Mac Pro eight core and a BD-RE to test with. 50 BD-R are on the way.

    I’m trying to use Toast to author a BD with a menu. The results are horrible, I believe this is caused by Toast encoding. If I use Share directly from FCP it looks outstanding on a Sony BD350 and LCD TV but there is no menu. I also tired Share to create a BDMV folder which works in Toast and looks great but doesn’t have a Toast menu.

    I’ve tried different settings in Compressor but Toast Encodes it each time. Any ideas?

    I’m slowly getting there. Toast is still encoding but it looks better.
