Mixing Codecs

Is it possible to mix codecs on the same Blu-Ray Disc in DVD Architect. I know they do that commerically but can it be done in this application. For example I want to out two Mpeg 25Mbps files and I one AVC 20Mbps files on the same disc. Or another example what about two Mpeg files at different bitrates, will DVDA reencode this video to default codec and bitrate or will it leave the files alone?

1) If you do these as separate titles on your disc, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Only way to know for sure would be to burn a disc.

2) If your MPEG-2 files are compatible and will fit on the disc, DVDA should not re-encode, so no change in bitrates.

Note: I regularly encode higher bitrates for graphic intros, and stitch them to lower bitrate DVD program files in VideoRedo, and DVD Architect handles them just fine.
