I use Toast 10 to burn blu-rays all the time, but I don’t use h.264. Instead, I make an MPeg-2 file in Compressor. Don’t look under DVD settings. Instead, go to Formats/Mpeg-2/Elementary Stream. Be sure to select Blu-Ray in the “Stream Usage” window. Take that into Toast, along with your audio file, and make sure you check “Re-Encode Never.” MP2 makes bigger files than H.264, but will be fine for a 2-hour movie.
I have a Pioneer burner. -
Glenn,
If Toast is overriding the “Never Re-Encode” option, it will tell you so. Otherwise, it will just say that it is Muxing. Why don’t you try MPEG2 instead of H.264? That’s what I use, and to my tired old eyes, it looks pretty good.

Bob,
I followed the link, but there is no information on how to do the upgrade, only the file & release notes. Also, does the same firmware work for the EX-1 and 1R? It isn’t very clear.

My cards Transcend Class 6 and Sandisk Class 2 (3 yrs. old) have always worked in my eFilms adaptors, but I have had occasional issues using my cards in in my other shooters’ adaptors.

Thanks Bob. Did you do the upgrade yourself?
-
My question was pertaining specifically to SDHC cards. I have SxS, Sandisk Class 2 and Transcend Class 6, and in more than 3 years, I’ve never had so much as a hiccup from any of them.

All I have received so far is a confirmation of my order. No notice of shipment, and no notice that it is backordered or delayed.
-
Now the Videoguys website is saying,”Please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery. We will not charge your card until we have product to ship you.” It didn’t say that when I ordered this morning. I received confirmation of my order, but no notice of shipment. Seems fishy to me.

So, where are these $299 upgrades coming from? I just ordered mine from Videoguys.com.

Don’t bother attempting to do it inside of FCP. Copy the BPAV folders to your hard drive using Sony Clip Browser. Then use XDCAM Transfer to re-wrap the clips to Quicktime, which is what FCP needs. Then bring the files into FCP. I believe the newest version of Clip Browser includes XDCAM Transfer as well.
