Hi guys,

I've got a festival coming up in New Jersey. Normally festivals ask for a digital transfer or a DCP version on a flashdrive but these guys are old skool and want a DVD and Blu-Ray sending.

Problem is, I don't have any burning equipment and neither does any of the crew, so I'm looking for a reasonable and reliable online service. Google has so far been a bit unreliable - anyone got any recommendations?

I don't need any fancy graphics on the discs or a launch menu, just the ability to upload a large .mov file somewhere, and they produce a few DVD and Blue-Ray copies that I can slap a label on with tracking information. Ideally they should be able to auto play in ANY player but if a coding was required, then NTSC is what the Americans use isn't it?

Any advice is appreciated.

-Mark

Bit of a tumbleweed moment!

I've taken the plunge and ordered an external drive to burn these myself. It means I can do this is other festivals are 'old skool' also. Anyone recommend good burning software?

I don't know how to burn things either... I haven't done it in years. It's all streaming now. Using Linux also makes things more difficult. I tried to burn a CD not long ago and the programs wouldn't work.

If I were you, I'd take the external drive around to the editor's place and get him to do it. I know the RAW files can be pretty big for even a short film. I'm sure ours was over 100GB for a 10-minute film. Then when it comes to Blu Ray etc, you have to convert the files into the various formats.
