    Hi. Are there any places in Dublin that offer a blu-ray burning facility? I was in at Filmbase but got some puzzled expressions. I have a 15gb video file I want to burn to a disc. Presume I'll end up buying an external burner but I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment. Thanks.

    Can you just use a large USB pen drive? They're around about a tenner nowadays.

    Failing that could you split the file into 4 using something like winrar and just burn it to four normal dics?

    I specifically need a good quality blu-ray cos' its a film I'll probably be submitting to festivals, giving to people to people to view and I want to able to control the quality of viewing. It's for presentation.

    Is the film encoded and authored correctly for Bluray?

    You can't simply burn a file to a Bluray disc and expect it to play in every player, it needs to be encoded and authored properly and needs to include AACS (which requires a licence agreement). Its something that a professional authoring/replication company can do, but its not going to be cheap.

    I have the original footage and can render it out to whatever format I need. Currently I have it as an Mpeg 2 and have been authoring that to a DVD structure and burning it to dual layer DVD when and if I've needed a DVD.
