Thanks. It's not that important to me, because I am able to create UDF Blu-ray discs (e.g. with matroska files or audio files) that are readable in my Blu-ray player, and that seems more important than being able to play films on my computer. However, it would be fun to have a bdauthor similar to dvdauthor, and being able to create BD Video discs (that may of course be possible without being able to actually read the discs on the computer; I've never been able to get anything vcdimager creates to work on my computer, but they work perfectly on every DVD player I've tried). Discussions about such an authoring app isn't for this list though, and that's why I brought up only the UDF bit. Anyway, thanks for replying. Rolf > >> >> Sincerely, >> >> Rolf Nielsen >
