One of the biggest complaints for Final Cut Pro (FCP) editors is the inability to create and burn Blu-ray Discs (BDs) with Macs. Windows apps seem to have all the fun with built-in BD creation/burning software (like Sony Vegas Pro and others). This article aims to help you create those BDs using FCP, Adobe Encore CS4 for Mac, and the excellent Other World Computing Mercury Pro BD/DVD/CD Burner.

Like the CERN collider everyone is rushing to define high definition video and to take ownership. Content owners, content distributors, content pipelines, hardware/software producers all want to sell folks who have had a tough day an escape with fantastic HD content. They all have the best HD answer. Lots of these folks offer you their interpretation of HD video and say the rest is "a world of hurt." In a lot of ways, their statements are partially true.

Anyone involved with video editing will appreciate just how fast and convenient the Primera Bravo SE Disc Publisher that supports burning Blu-rays/DVDs/CDs really is. Using the onboard software (Discribe for Mac, PTPublisher for Windows), it's the perfect set of tools for those looking to burn multiple discs. A perfect complement is Roxio's Toast 9 Titanium, which now supports Blu-ray Disc (BD) creation and burning.

With the advent of inexpensive desktop DVD authoring applications, it's now possible for almost anyone to make a DVD on their MAC or PC. And with replication facilities accepting recordable DVDs as masters, the workflow has become even easier and more streamlined than in the past. But just because you can make a DVD that plays on your computer or set top DVD player at home, doesn't mean when you replicate and distribute your DVD it will work correctly or play on most or a majority of DVD players.

A few weeks ago, I was approached to take a look at Roxio's Toast 9 Titanium (T9T), and what first jumped into my head was that my Mac can already burn DVDs and CDs so why would I need a program to do it for me? Needless to say, I really didn't have high expectations for what I was going to be looking at, but let's put it through its paces and see if Toast can impress me.

Two of Sony Creative Software's major showcases at NAB 2008 were prosumer and professional Blu-ray authoring. Now that Blu-ray Discs (BD) are the industry standard, Sony is offering DVD Architect 5 to the indie filmmakers, producers and videographers. What's really cool is you can create one project file and burn either a standard definition (SD) or Blu-ray DVD. It's a free upgrade for Vegas Pro 8 users who are registered with Sony Creative Software.

When was the last time you turned on your VHS player? That long ago? Well join the club. As old VHS, 8mm, and other analog video tape join the Betamax, the question that remains is how do you archive all those tapes for future viewing? For Windows users, solutions such as Honestech's VHS to DVD 3.0 Deluxe have been around for a while. Mac users have also had some solutions, but not to the extent that Windows users have.

Gary Shapiro, the head of the CEA (Consumer Electronics Association) has been saying almost every chance he gets that the technology industry will lead the economy back. The new breed of business leader is different. Not better, not worse just different. It will be interesting to see if they make their mark, establish their legacy or simple optimize product line extensions.

When I first reviewed the Pure Digital Flip camera back in 2007, I liked the camera for its ease of use, video quality, and portability. The video camera pretty much set the video camera world on its ears, with more than 2 million cameras sold since being introduced several years ago--so much so that Cisco Systems snatched up the company. The latest version of the camera, The Flip UltraHD coupled with the latest version of FlipShare, keeps the solution a compelling one.

There is a whole group of people who grew up on the Internet that believes everything that is out there should be free. Stewart Brand set the stage back in 1984 at the first Hacker's Conference when he said -- Information Wants To Be Free. Information also wants to be expensive. That tension will not go away. At the end of the day an organization has to put money in the cash register so bills will be paid and people will have food/shelter. There is no such thing as a free lunch.
