Hi Guys,
Instead of spending hours searching Google like I usually do, figured I'd come here and get mostly facts.
I have a Blu-ray burner on my computer that I've only used for burning DVD's so far. I figured it was time to buy some Blu-ray blank discs so I could burn more than one movie to each disc without compressing and loosing quality. I went here: http://
and under (About This Item) it states, "This BD-R spindle box comes with 10 Verbatim BD-R discs, each with a 1080p resolution." And under (Specifications) it states, Resolution - 720p. I don't know why they mention 2 different resolutions, must be a typo, but anyway.
Are you kidding me! Are Blu-ray discs really limited to a resolution size??? I have a bunch of 4K movies that I had planned on burning to Blu-ray. The movies aren't even close to the 25G size limit and I would be playing them on a 4k Blu-ray player. If you put a Mpeg4 file on a Blu-ray disc, how would it even know what resolution it is, it's just a data file being stored, the player is the one that has to deal with the actual resolution size.......right?
Before anyone even suggests it, no, I don't want to store these movies out on a cloud or on a HDD. Things can wrong with a cloud or HDD, Blu-ray discs will certainly out live me.......as long as I never have a fire.
Thanks guys
