[SOLVED]Burning Bluray?

What is the easiest way to burn bluray-dl disks? I have an LG Bluray burner that can do up to the XL disks(128gb) but as far as I know my ps3 and most players that aren’t brand new cant use the xl so I ordered up some bluray-dl disks(50gig). I want to put my Game Of Thrones 1080p collection on disks and need the easiest best way to do it. I use convertxtodvd for reg files. Is there anything similar for bluray? These disks are not cheap and do not want to waste a bunch trying. I am sure my collection for each season is prolly a lil bigger than 50 gig so is there a file that will “shrink” them to fit on the 50gig disk or do an overburn(if that is even possible for these)? Maybe do it all in one like convertxtodvd does for reg files and disks. Any assistance and guidance is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

convertxtodvd

If you just need to burn (no conversion or shrinking) then all you need is IMGBurn. Drag over the BDMV and certificate folder (or load the .iso), hit burn and you’re done.
If you want to convert you have 2 options. ConvertXtoDVD if you intend to burn to DVD
@, why use the settings. Simply use ConvertXtoHD that’s what it’s for, burns the output to a blu-ray structure like CXD does for DVD’s

i used dvdfab when i was ripping blurays. this was about 5 years ago so may have changed a little. I just rip the main movie and about 75% of the time it would fit on a 25GB BD-R.I did do a few on 50gb disks and ripped the entire disk.. I would just opy the BDMV folder to imgburn and burn it. it was nice and it did look good. but I download the 10-12gb files now and they look almost identical on a TV of my size. so I do that as its alot less involved and quicker
Answer #4
Thanks guys! I didn’t know convert would do bluray. This makes it much easier. I wanna archive my 1080p Game Of Thrones to Bluray-DL 50 gig disks. Sounds like convert will be my proggy. I appreciate the responses! That’s why I come here and call this my home!
Answer #5
are you trying to make a bluray that has a menu like convertxtodvd does for dvd’s? id double check I dont remember convertxtodvd converting HD content to a BD-R. I would use MultiAVCHD and it would make a custom menu that I could then burn to a BD-R
Answer #6
Imgburn. Note, don’t use convertxtodvd, you will lose a lot of quality.
Answer #7
I used convertxtohd and it made a perfect looking bluray-dl disk. I think it looks awesome! Did EXACTLY what I was looking for. Problem SOLVED!
Answer #8
Thanks for all that…Now we know…It’s ConvertXtoHD we need for Blurays and ConvertXtoDVD for DVDs !
(I was reading all the ConvertX’s as the same thing for a minute !)
Answer #9
Yes thats they way I use it even tho from what I read from is that you can use a 50gig bluray disk with convertxtodvd. Not sure how good the quality is. I am still using my convertxtohd putting GOT on bluray disk but I think you can use convertxtohd and burn to regular dvd’s as well. I assume the convertxtohd makes them better quality?? I do know the 50 gig bluray I burnt look awesome on the ps3 to my 72″dlp Samsung tv.

I think I gave you bad information. I had an experience this evening
I downloaded a 23GB movie and tried to use ConvertXTODVD to burn the files to a blank 25GB Blu-Ray Disk.
Entered 23000 MB for the output and got a message that can not do that. Don’t remember exact wording. It did burn 1.5GB to the 25GB Blu Ray disk. So the quality was not good and wasted disk space.
So didn’t do what I wanted to accomplish.
What I needed to do for above is ConvertXtoHD for 25 and 50GB disks.

Thanks for the clarification . Were all here to learn and help. Now we know to not try that. Sorry you wasted a blank. I have done 4 blurays this week. Only drawback for me is using slow pc so it takes like 24-26 hours to convert and burn 1 disk when I put all 10 episodes from each season of game of thrones 1080p (6gigs each episode)I got from here(thanks NewAge.) on 1 50gig disk. It converts and makes them fit on the 50gig bluray disk. I even threw on a game of thrones picture and the opening music from the show for the background. It looks awesome and almost professional.
EDIT: Burn to any DVD or Blu-ray disks – all formats and sizes supported: DVD +/- R, DVD +/- RW, DVD +/- RW, DVD-5, DVD-9, BD-R, BD-RE, BD-25, BD-50.
I see it doesnt list the BD-XL(100gig to 128gig) disks yet. My burner does them but I dont own anything that supports them yet except my pc. So I will only really need(use) the 50 gig ones.
