I have made many standard dvds that play with no problem on older &amp; newer dvd players, but none of them will play on my Blu-ray player...I just recently got a dvd of my daughters Christmas Play on standard dvd which plays fine in my Blu-ray player. I dont know if i am missing a setting or what; so back to the editing station i go.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/authoring-a-dvd-so-it-can-play-on-bluray-players#post-74302 Sun, 29 Jan 2012 15:01:22 +0000 vid-e-o-man 74302@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>&nbsp;CMack, as iankinnz said most blu-ray players can upconvert standard definition DVDs to play on HD tv's giving very good results. I have in the past used my Sony Movie Studio software(later models only) to burn HD files to standard DVDs that will only&nbsp;play in Blu-ray players or PS3 consoles giving true HD images on TV&nbsp;screen.&nbsp;My computer only had a standard DVD burner installed.&nbsp;I didn't have the option to add menu, etc. I have since added a Blu-ray burner and burn to Blu-ray discs now which have much larger capacity and I have the ability to add menu.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/authoring-a-dvd-so-it-can-play-on-bluray-players#post-74270 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 20:34:43 +0000 iankinnz 74270@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>&nbsp;I believe all Blueray players are reverse compatable allowing them to play DVDs. If you can make a DVD that will play on a DVD player is will also play in standard DVD quality on a Blueray player.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/authoring-a-dvd-so-it-can-play-on-bluray-players#post-74261 Sat, 28 Jan 2012 12:12:06 +0000 CMack 74261@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I need t know how to make dvd's so they are compatiable with blue~ray players without using a blue~ray burner. is this possiable?

You can try DVD Flick. It is an open source app for DVD authoring, and can burn near any video file to DVD, support for over 60 video codec and 40 audio codec. Easy to use. </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/could-someone-recommend-free-dvd-authoring-software#post-55695 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 10:55:46 +0000 robGRAUERT 55695@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>i doubt you will find free DVD authoring. if you do, i'm sure it's not worth using</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/could-someone-recommend-free-dvd-authoring-software#post-55691 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 08:42:12 +0000 arthouse 55691@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I have used Adobe Encore in the past but I have never had a copy of my own, and I can't afford one.

Can the movie be converted to a form that will work with iDVD, or is any of this possible? (It was edited in FCE HD to start with, and exported to QuickTime)</p> <p>Soy</p>
