I am trying to burn blue ray and I get this error

Did you try to re-insert the same disc?

Anyhow...

I would have tried to publish to a disk (image) and then burn, if that's possible...

AND I would have used one disc (if I had extra) to test that the burner actually worls as it should, bu throwing + 30 GB at it with whatever software I am burning with...

How first option happens?

I mean publishing to a disk
 
SO it seems disc is bad. I tried to write DVD anything, but it says status non recordable. So it was my last blue ray it is 5 o'clock morning I hoped I would have today disc so I will try tomorrow.
 
Sorry, Avi,

since I was under the impression that you don't know much about Blu-ray authoring (or DVD authoring, I'm afraid) I suggested the easiest option from the start. Direct Blu-ray generation from FCP via "Send to…" is the easiest one.

Forget Compressor for this task, it's either Toast with the HD plug-in (slightly less quality than FCP, IMHO) or Adobe Encore. But the latter is nothing you learn in a day when a deadline is approaching – rather get a specialist to do it for you.

I don't remember how many DVD-Rs I spoiled before I wrote my 600+ pages book on DVD authoring…

BTW: How long is your movie? You might burn a AVCHD disk (Blu-ray structure on red laser DVD), which plays well from many Blu-ray players.

My movie is 90minutes.

I am buying two blue rays now. I have overcome much more complicated tasks. It is shame for me.

I am doing everything like I read and watched in many tutorials.

One doubt I have is that I tried to write on bd and it was interrupted so this operation spoiled disc I think and second time it did not wrote.

And I could not find send to blue ray option in fcp
 
– Have your sequence activated.
– Go "File" -> "Send to…"
– First it will offer "Apple TV" –> change to Blu-ray
– Let the machine do it's work…

I hope I remember it well, my machine is currently running in German.

I hope I didn't come over as being rude – on the contrary, I wanted to keep you from committing suicide ;-)

Thanks

Actually I burned by toast titanium today already. then I opened in windows server computer because mac does not opens it. I opened in gom player and it did not play but I can see it is recorded I see stop scenes, just when I click on play button it does not play. But I thing it is recorded well, cause image was as good quality as quicktime movie. I am going to theater on Sunday and let's see how my film will look like.

thanks for help

I'd probably tried it in a regular blueray player before going to the cinemas...

Good luck!

I am not showing it to audience

My movie premier is on 17th March, I am just testing colors and sound.
If it does not work I will record again. I do not have blue ray player.

thanks
 
How ever I am still searching for best option to record as good BD as possible. Compressor is still good choice?

I have Adobe Encor on MAC. I have heard that it is good too.

What do you think if i get 50 GB blue ray? I think movie will be declined in quality less. I guess my final movie will be something around 300-400 GB as quicktime player.
 
H.264 is far more effective, your 90 minutes will fit on a 25 GB disk.

The maximum data rate for all camera angles plus audio is 36 mbps, but your single video should look perfectly fine with 18 to 20 mbps, I get excellent results with 15.

You can give Adobe Media Encoder (with Encore) a try, but I doubt you'll see much of a difference.

OK, but toast has only two options MPEG-2 and MPEG-4

So I guess I can do it from compressor, because compressor burn with H.264
 
Congratulate me guys

I burned blu ray from compressor as well, SO I have three options for theater tomorrow

1. Blu ray toast burnt MPEG-2
2. blu ray H.264 compressor burnt
3. Mac Mini quicktime movie

SO let's see which colors and overall quality is the best

Here is compressor recorded quality same photo as above. I THINK COMPRESSOR IS BETTER
