Can't burn BluRay on Mac
« on: June 22, 2014, 07:51:17 AM »
I am using PM V5 build 15451 in OSX 10.9.

I am unable to burn BluRay disks. PM recognizes the BluRay burner (a Pioneer BDXL attached via USB), but when i click the burn button, I immediately get a "Finishing disk" dialog quickly followed by an error dialog that just says: "An error occurred while burning a disk". I am able to burn CDs and DVDs from PM using this drive.

I recently switching from a Windows machine, and PM was able to burn BluRay disks on that.

Any solution?

Mick,

PM on the Mac does not support BluRay disc burning at this time.

Yes, but he wants to burn Blu-Ray discs from within PM like he can burn CD and DVD discs.

Correct. I can go outside PM and use Toast or something else to burn teh Blu-Ray. It is just more convenient to be able to do it within PM, especially if I want to be selective about which images to copy.

If it can be added someday, that would be great.
