Recommended Blu-Ray Media
« on: June 09, 2011, 04:56:00 AM »


I'm preparing to burn my first blu-ray videos.  I ordered these discs:

Does anyone have specific recommendations for blu-ray media that has proven to burn consistently without producing coasters?

I will be using Nero 10 for burning the discs.

I'm probably going to purchase this burner:

Why don't you get the above and an external enclosure :)

It can burn up to 120GB on a single disc -> with BDXL media and the right ridicously expensive software.

It is only 6x with BD-R though.

I've shot around 25-30 shows in HD, but still have not bought a blu-ray burner and have yet to author a blu-ray disk.  In part it's because I still don't own an HD tv.  But I've got the tapes/files of all the shows shot in HD, so one of these days, I'll make the jump. 

Just so I understand the prices listed in the link in the first post - 25GB blu-ray disks are now selling for a little over a buck?

Verbatim Data Life Plus BD-R 50GB Double Layer DL Media.   No coasters at all.  Personally I would stay far away from the Phillips blank media.

I was paying about $2.20 per 25gb verbatim bluray. They may be cheaper now. But i wouldnt trust using anything besides Verbatim BD-R.

Newegg has a 20 pack of Verbatims for $30.99 with free shipping.  That's a little over a buck and a half.

Has the Phillips blank media been problematic in the past?
