Nero Blu-Ray

Here we go -- from the Nero 7 features page:

"Now supports Blu-ray technology.
Nero 7 now gives you the ability to burn your data to BD-RE and BD-R (Blu-ray) media, which enables you to store enormous amounts of data (25-50 GB) onto a single disc."

Shouldn't be long now. Darryl

The idea of Blu-ray is starting to grow on me. My latest project has already consumed 110 GB of HDD space and there is no effective way of backing that up once the project is complete. Those shiny discs had better be 25 or 50 GB. Wonder what all the Blu-ray stuff is going to cost once it comes out?

Not to rain on the parade, but as far as I can tell, there is NO code yet to support Blu Ray in Nero 7. The code has been written but not yet implemented. Currently it is just marketing hype to sell more copies of N7 currently.

Personally, I want the High Profile AVC encoder from Ateme in there before Blu Ray.

What is the High Profile AVC encoder?

Currently the AVC profile that Nero has implemented is baseline and main with high profile coming. Each profile has features that can be used when encoding and High Profile I believe is the highest profile that allows all of the options/features available in the H.264 AVC codec.
