Preparing graphics for Blu Ray

Hi All

any news arround HD-afteredit or out of the woodshed?

hi everybody,
it´s been a while since larry announced the mission-statement.

since apple haven´t announced a new version of DVD SP incl. BD-authoring, I´m really looking forward to see a working BD-solution for mac ONLY.

I tested a lot software in the last few month (especially WINDOWS-software), but all of them not working properly or you have to trickle arround it, to get it working.

Blu ray Region Logos

Hi All

Anybody know where I can get (or maybe can send me) the artwork for the Blu Ray Region Codes - the Hexagons with the A B or C or the one with all three... Official Blu ray logo would be handy too though i managed to find a version of that on brandsoftheworld.com

Subtitles for Blu Ray

Realised post I made in Off Topic should probably be here:

So does anyone around these parts know what software you can use to create subtitles that which can be used in a Blu ray title if we have the subs as an STL file. It seems the format is BDN XML usually with 8Bit PNG files...

Anybody know how to create them?

Bluray Playback on a Mac

Does anybody know of a way to play back bluray muxes on a Mac?

Larry - any chance of rolling out BD playback software to go along with the authoring tools in development?

thanks,

HD DVD officially dead

So with the fact that Toshiba have apparently officially announced the death of HD DVD this leads to the question of how close is HDAfterEdit from being able to produce some form of replicatable master from the tools that us lesser mortals might be able to afford (Adobe's Encore and DVDIt I think being the only contenders really).

How the IP licensing falls out if BD "wins" the format war...

One thing that I'm very curious about is how the presumed demise of HD-DVD actually impacts IP licensing and associated revenue streams - because this is of course what all the fuss has been about anyway. One obvious loser is Microsoft which provided HDi technology to HD-DVD. That's a write-off. And a winner is all the new tech for making BD media and cutting BD masters etc.

Toshiba to drop HD DVD ?

Just wondering what will happen with HDAE after this ?
