Professional Blu-Ray authoring software

Quick Look

Blu-Disc Studio is a professional Blu-Ray authoring software designed for easy and quick authoring of Blu-ray discs with BD-J interactive menu.

Using Blu-Disc Studio you can create complete Blu-ray discs for personal use, CMF output (mastering) or export data to Scenarist® BD.

Based on the original technology, Blu-Disc Studio allows you to create a full valuable BD with Java based menu, transparent to user.
