It should come with the purchase of the book. Amazon has them used from $5

The mid or higher range Sonys and Pansonics have no issues either. Make sure it’s a profile 1.1.

That progressive stream will be interlaced coming from a set top with no progressive outputs. The player adds the 3:2 to be play back on interlaced monitors.
No, you should not convert from progressive to interlaced. Encode progressive and let the player add the “interlacing”. Whether you have a progressive or interlaced MPEG stream has nothing to do with compatibility. It only allows players who have progressive outputs to play back the stream as progressive. If your player has no P outputs then the player itself will playback interlaced.

If you author a disc with a progressive stream, only a player’s progressive outputs will do. Also you must have a monitor which is capable of displaying progressive. If you do not have a progressive player, the player itself add the 3:2 cadence for interlaced outputs. If your footage was originally shot and edited progressive, then your disc should be as well. No need to worry about which player will play what. All players will playback a progressive stream, it just depends if it has P outputs. Never deinterlance or convert for DVD.
Depends on what you mean by professional, but most Hollywood titles are progressive. Not sure the ratio of progressive and non-progressive set tops.

That’s BD’s copy protection. It’s possible that player needs to see an AACS folder to play. However, the Sharp I have won’t play discs with AACS folder. Some player simply won’t play BD-R. I’m working on an article right now to found out the low down on which players play what. Here’s a master list of players I’m testing. That Sharp is a profile 1.0 player or “Grace Period ” player. Playback from BD-r is unlikely.

Does it contain an AACS folder as well? It’s possible it’s looking for that folder. I have a Sharp and will not play BD-R even though it indicates it will. PS3 is the best platform to use for BD playback.

Here’s their site…they have a PC version

That Sharp model probably won’t play BD-R. I have one as well. Not all players are required to play burned BD discs. Another thing to remember, I don’t think Toast burns a BDMV, only BDAV. is there a BDMV file?
