vancouver_wedding_portrait Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 <p>I have been trying to find out if anyone is using a Blu ray burner for Mac on the net but having a tough time, I hope someone is using the Blu ray burner can you tell me which one you are using and what software? Thanks for reading my question. Btw I have a Mac book Pro plus Imac therefore an external Blue Ray is the only way!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank_skomial Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 <p>BlueRay technology is not an Apple native technology and therefore Apple does not offer (yet?) (or did not offer) BluRay recorder. <br> There are external recorders from Buffalo, LG Electronics, Sony, Asus, and LaCie, Panasonic.<br> Even though there are drivers for version OS 10.6 on iMac, reviews are not that great.<br> Search Amazon for it, and read all Apple users reviews, before deciding on one.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2imaging Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 <p>I haven't felt the need to go BluRay yet, but I'll probably buy from Other World Computing (<a href="http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/blu-ray">http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/blu-ray</a>) when the time comes.</p> <p>I've been buying drives and enclosures from them for over a decade, and the prices and products are always top-notch. I've had issues with various brands of drive enclosures, even from well respected brands, but I've never been disappointed with and enclosure from OWC.</p> <p>The enclosure is the interface between your computer and the drive when you go external, it doesn't do any good to buy a great drive and put it in a lousy case!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bill_shields Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 <p>Albeit lack of official support, you can use Blu-ray but only with a Mac Pro internal drive. External drives like the OWC Mercury Pro will let you add Blu-ray capabilities to your Mac book Pro along with some help from <a href="http://www.easydvdburning.com/">special software</a> like Toast. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vancouver_wedding_portrait Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 <p>I have purchased a LG-BP06LU11 Blu Ray burner even though it is for PC; it worked fine with Mac and using Toast for Blu Ray burning.</p> <p>Wayne Lam Creative Media Director<br> Vancouver Wedding Photographer + Videographer<br> <a href="http://FantasyWeddingPhotography.com" target="_blank">Photography</a><br> <a href="http" target="_blank">Video</a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
