DVD is very successful, and would definitely be around for quite sometime. However, as implemented. It is not a high definition format instead its just a typical output video. With the new technology it is now being enhanced to provide people the best quality of entertainment they ever wanted.

All the actions, all the adventures that we have right now can definitely make you say I’ve got everything I want in an entertainment. But what if there is something your eyes is missing, something perfect, with 6 times resolution of standard dvd. You are about to enter to entire the new world. Collect clips of your favorite scene while the movie is playing. Go behind the scene. Change camera angle High def and fully connected online that allows you to download contents. The future of high definition is here. Everything yow want just got a whole lot better, spectacular high definition feature. You can now own the movies you want with the entire new level of interactivity. Below are the difference between Blu ray disc and HD DVD,

Blu-ray Disc

It is the next generation optical packaged media disc format. It was named as Blu-ray for the reasons that the laser beam which reads the data from the new discs is blue violet instead of red. This so called blue laser disc technology has a shorter wave length than a red laser, that makes it possible to read data with greater precision. The format was developed to enable recording, rewriting and playback of high-definition video, as well as storing large amounts of data. Great privilege of watching

HD DVD

The HD (High-Definition) DVD standard is designed to be the successor to the standard DVD format, and is derived from the same underlying technologies. It is a next-generation optical disc format, featuring a significant increase in storage capacity facilitating support for high definition (HD) video and audio. The HD DVD name is derived from its origination as a high-definition extension of the DVD optical disc format.

High-Def Market share

From the average consumer’s stand-point, there is little difference between the two technologies. Both formats offer support for HD audio and video and they both have the potential to emerge as the sole successor to DVD. Some of the major differences are BD’s higher production costs and superior storage capacity of 23.3GB per layer vs HD’s 15GB.

Other Interesting facts:

* The Nichi Corporation, who holds the design patents to the Blu-ray’s laser system, sits as an associate member of the HD DVD Promotion Group.

* Even though Apple sits on the Blu-ray Board of Directors, its DVD Studio Pro software supports authoring HD DVD media.

* Blu-ray, unlike HD DVD, requires a hard coating on its discs because it’s 0.5m closer to the surface. The polymer coating it uses, called Durabis, was developed by TDK and is supposedly extremely resilient and fingerprint resistant.

* The Java platform is mandatory on Blu-ray as it’s the standard for menus/multimedia (i.e. all Blu-ray systems must support JVM)

* DVD version of the Xbox 360 is rumored for the future.

* The first consumer Blu-ray device in the US market is expected to be the PlayStation 3.

How To Convert And Burn M2Ts Videos To Dvd Disc , Complete With Personalized Menu, Within Few Clicks

April 12, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
Filed under: Great Gadgets 

ConvertXtoDVD is a well known, award winning dvd authoring software that makes it easy for you to convert any video file(such as m2ts, avi, divx, xvid, mov, mkv, flv , dvr-ms, mpeg1, mpeg2, mpeg-, nsv, ts, ifo, vob, asf, wmv, realmedia, rm, rmvb, ogm, existing files from digital camcorders, TV/Sat, capture cards, etc.) and author your own DVD, create personalized menus with many templates, add subtitles, add effects to your videos and burn them directly to DVDs. In this guide we are going to show you how to easily convert and burn your m2ts videos to DVD using the program. You can free download ConvertXtoDVD here. Just install and run it so we can move on with the guide here.

Step1.Run ConvertXtoDVD. For the beginning lets go to Settings -> General. What we will set here is the working folder, which is the folder that ConvertXToDVD will save the DVD files before burning them to a DVD. Make sure that the drive that the folder is in has many GBs of free space and set the working folder. We will set the rest of the settings in the next steps, so for now click OK.

Step2. We are back to the main windows and its time to load your m2ts videos to this program. To do so, simply click on the green cross button and select the video files you want to convert. You’ll have then a video file list on the program’s interface. ConvertXtoDVD will automatically create a DVD menu and each video file will become a separate titleset.

Step3. ConvertXtoDVD can create menus that range from simple still picture menus to complex motion menus that have small thumbnail sized clips from your videos. Also, importantly, it has the option to not use a Menu at all. To get to the list of menus, click the + beside DVD Options, you will see a “Template Now Used” option first. Double click “Template Now Used” option and you will notice a select box will appear. Click the box and you will have the full list of available menu templates from ConvertXtoDVD. My suggestion is to stick to simply classic menus if you have a lot of video content on your DVD, like 3 – 4 hours+ of material. Other than that, feel free to experiment with any of the menus you’d like, or choose not to use a Menu, which makes sense for a DVD with just one movie.

Step4. Click the + beside DVD Options to reveal all options for the Menu item. Lets see the options one by one. First you can edit the text which will be shown at top of the title menu by double-clicking on it and setting the name. Next, you can customize the Menu with fonts and your music and background image if you want.

Step5.. Right next comes the video properties. First in the Titleset menu you can add thumbnails of each Titleset for easier and faster access to them. By default the thumbnail will be taken from the first frame of each video. However you can change this by double clicking on the thumbnail option. You will notice the audio of each video has been automatically imported as ConvertXToDVD supports almost all formats. But you can also add you own audio (for example commentary) by right-clicking on Audio and selecting Add Audio. You can also click on each audio channel and set the language. Then we move to the subtitle settings. If you had the subtitles in the same folder with each video file and they also have the same name they will be automatically inserted. If you don’t, right click on the “Subtitle (0 stream)” and browse to where you keep them. Finally you can review the Chapters and add more if you like as well as edit the Titleset name which is what will appear in the main menu as the title of this video. Follow the same steps to configure all your videos and move to the next step.

Step6. We are finally ready to convert. You may want of course to see how your final DVD menu will look like. To do this click the Preview buttonand you can take a look at the whole DVD, including the menus in the Video Preview Window. If you are satisfied with the result click Convert to start the converting process!

Step7. When the conversion is over you will be prompted to insert a blank DVD disk in your DVD burner and the burn process will start. Finally burning finishes and your new DVD is ready for your player. Enjoy!
