any way to get non 1080p resolution on a disc...

[rotatorkuf]

i'm trying to save some 1920x800 resolution high def videos on bd-rs

so i've pretty much figured out i can do avchds, but the resolution gets resized up to 1920x1080 resolution with black bars

i can stream the video to my tv from my pc as 1920x800 just fine, but this is not a desirable solution

i can also save the videos as data on bd-r 25s, this is probably what i'm going to have to do unless...

is there any way to save these videos on a bd-r 25, keeping the resolution (don't care if bitrate has to be downgraded)

Only as a data disc, not an authored BD



Note the resolution isn't really "changed" - not of the active image area - you're just adding letterbox bars.

If this is a BD source, in fact the original video was 1920x1080. Your 1920x800 video is actually cropped. You're just putting the letter box bars back on

And If you watch the 1920x800 video on a 16:9 display, you will still see black bars (because your display will put the bars back on)

And this is bad because?

Why isn't this undesireable?

Unless what? Why would this not be a fine option?

is there any way to save these videos on a bd-r 25, keeping the resolution (don't care if bitrate has to be downgraded)

Yes, your last option COULD do that.

But there is a lot of judgements and priorities going on here that we aren't privy to, can't understand, or maybe just do not agree with. Without more info...
