Quick Question - Blu-ray Forum

broganreynik · 04-07-2008, 02:12 AM

I'm looking into getting a new laptop with a Blu-ray drive, and I'm debating on getting a read only or a writeable drive. Basically this has intrigued me because I'm wondering is it possible that I could burn multiple dvd's to a single Blu-ray disc. Like could I have a main menu that has the options to access each dvd's main menu. For example: I create a Quentin Tarantino movies disc, and at the menu there's Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2 and Death Proof (given there's enough space). Then sub-menus for Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown and Death Proof for the special features discs. Then when I select that movie/disc, it just comes up like I had put the regular DVD in. Sorry if this is an obvious yes or no answer, but I've never really burned movies before, so I'm kinda new to it. If I can do that, then I'm sold on a writeable drive.

Obviously you can store all those movies onto 1 50gb disk. I have personally yet to play with fancy DvD creation software, much less BD software. What you are trying to do seems very simple since you're just linking menu options and then linking some options to play a set of blu-ray files. That's something so basic I would be shocked if it couldn't be done.
Besides, if you are already going to shell out for a BD reader, a little more for the burner probably won't hurt the bank.
