Even if you purchase this blue ray burner, you CANNOT burn a HD dvd through the latest version of dvd studio pro on a mac? I dont get it. Then why do they give you the option to burn and hd dvd? IF anyone has the latest version you will see. If you look in the lower right hand corner you will see that there is an option that gives the choice to burn a sd or hd dvd. If you choose the HD option It will burn But it would only play back on my mac. NOt on a regular dvd player. Im thinking that once I purchase the blue ray burner it will be different. NO?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[keston karter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 22nd 2008 4:41PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MCE intros Blu-ray burner for Mac Pro, Power Mac G5]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</guid><description><![CDATA[just wondersing. If i wanted to add the Blue ray burner to my mac pro. can I burn a dvd movie. I currently use premier cs3, and export to encore for my final burns. I understand that it requires toast. Thats fine, but I dont think Toast gives you the option for dvd menus. I need to creat DVD menus, on a Bray disc, using my mac pro. How can i accomplish this.<br>Thanks]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[vedder]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 10th 2008 8:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MCE intros Blu-ray burner for Mac Pro, Power Mac G5]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</guid><description><![CDATA[This all looks great, and we ordered this drive in Sept and still have not heard or received anything!

Maybe not for the computer internet jocky, who uses the computer for playing. But for people who are using their macs for creative things like HD video, or just plain video and need a better storage solution this is a defintive solution. Plus to back up tons of data like tons of high res photos etc... <br><br>Expensive not quite, If you think about the cost of the drive and the gigs of info that you could back up or store, the price will easily be justified in a a short time.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[George Burbano]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 5th 2007 7:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MCE intros Blu-ray burner for Mac Pro, Power Mac G5]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just.. a little pricy. <br>Still not worth it yet.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 25th 2007 1:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MCE intros Blu-ray burner for Mac Pro, Power Mac G5]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</guid><description><![CDATA[i would rather upgrade the ram on a macpro then to buy a blu-ray drive for that price right now.<br><br>Remember when dvd recorders first came out?<br><br>They use to sell for like 30--400 bucks now you can find them for <br>50-100 bucks.<br><br>I will wait my macpro is stil la beats without it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[uNext]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 25th 2007 1:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MCE intros Blu-ray burner for Mac Pro, Power Mac G5]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ok, so now we have the software(toast8) and the finally the hardware, But I'm pretty sure this is not all you need to format a movie to run on a Blu-ray drive.

With the advances of portable flash drives, spur-of-the-moment backups are a breeze without one-time burnable media. If you're into serious data storage and archiving, tape drives are probably the way to go. This is probably only for the well-to-do at the moment who really enjoy making high-definition movies or the like.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Andrei Vassiliev]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 25th 2007 2:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MCE intros Blu-ray burner for Mac Pro, Power Mac G5]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</guid><description><![CDATA[I can't wait until Blu-ray is available on Macbook Pros and iMacs]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Daniel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 26th 2007 9:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MCE intros Blu-ray burner for Mac Pro, Power Mac G5]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/25/mce-intros-blu-ray-burner-for-mac-pro-power-mac-g5/</guid><description><![CDATA[right yeah rck the MACs lol good luck getting apple to give you some HDD's lol.

NO you can not author HD DVDs on your mac and use this burner.  <br><br>It's not the burners fault!  It seems like a great product.  Would be a good data DVD burning option.<br><br>The issue is no Mac based supported Blu Ray DVD authoring tools right now (Oct 2007).  A DVD you author with something like DVD Studio Pro or iMovie HD will not produce a Blu Ray compatible file.  This means it won't play on a desktop player.  <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[k]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 5th 2007 7:09PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
