A Summary: Creating BluRay Playable Content....

Okay, here is what I have gathered thus far concerning HD content delivery, especially as it relates to BluRay Disc players
:
One will need to buy the Ulead Movie Factory 6 Plus HD plugin pack and this can be bought fro around $100 USD.

Once that step is completed you can import footage (including, but not limited to M2T files) and even create menus that can be burned on HD DVD’s, BluRay Discs or standard DVD’s (S or DL).

Vegas’s default encode for AVCHD is 15MBS, but lower bit rates can be used (even 8MBS looks good at a resolution of 1440x1080).

There is no longer a need to transcode M2T files before utilizing them in MF6

Take note that you may incur an error if you adjust your burn speed from Maximum if you allow MF6 to burn your disc. It may be best just to leave the default setting for burner speed. If you do incur an error, it will allow you to start back at the burning phase without having to re prepare the entire disc again.

If you do a AVCHD render in Vegas at 15,000kbps (15MBS) you should not be subjected to re rendering. Make sure that your audio matches though. So, instead of using 5.1 change it to AC3 (if that is what you encoded to in Vegas)

I thought it would be beneficial to compile some of the answers in some other threads that helped in outlining what is needed to produce playable content on a BluRay Disc player.

Rather than posting specifics about other software wouldn't it be easier to just say read the users manual. I mean MF6+ now burns avchd disks, that's really great.
No one in my family owns a Blu-Ray disc player or a HD-DVD player, Blu-Ray players are still to expensive.
Man, even people I don't know, don't own a Blu-Ray Disc Player :)
Blink about it.

4eyes,

There would be no use for a forum if all anyone did was point someone towards a book or manual. I fail to see the point of your critque.

As for the point of my post; well, it is to summarize the steps I have read are necessary (and helpful) in creating HD content that is playable, especially in how that relates to BluRay.

As I said in my first post on this thread, these are tips and information I picked up from several different threads and combined them here for a simple guide for myself and others to follow if and when they include MF6 into their box of tools.

Also, I own a bluray player and you don't know me :)

Apology accepted.

If you come across anything else, please do share.
