Did you know that if you have FINAL CUT PRO HD for the Mac that you can create a HD-DVD?
I found out last week. I had created a high-definition music video at my job, and wanted to burn it to DVD. I saw the HD-DVD option, and decided I'd give it a try even though I don't have a HD-DVD burner. It limited the project to 80 mins of HD-Video, (on a single 4.7 GB disc!) but it did encode well! It played the disc back instantly in my Toshiba HD-A2, recognizing it as a HD-DVD, (it actually only took 3 seconds to load, opposed to the 21 seconds it usually takes a Warner Home video HD-DVD) and it played back flawlessly in 1080i with Stereo PCM sound! I had no idea this could be done, burning HD content onto a standard DVD, much let alone that the player could spin the disc using it's red-layer fast enough to read it!! I've heard the same can be done with the upcoming Adobe Encore CS3 Suite and Blu-Ray...encoding up to 80 mins or so of High Def content using H.264 or MPEG4 compression. I thought this was cool, and hadn't heard a lot about it, so I thought that I'd pass it on!
