Shareonline,

I was considering upgrading from my panasonic DMP-BD30 to a DMP-BD60, but having read your posts think I will wait. I am keen to keep to a panasonic player as you can so easily insert an SDHC card from camera to bluray for immediate playback. Not sure I would be able to do this with a Sony bluray player.

I have the latest firmware and have tried burning AVCHD to DVD-RW, DVD-R (tried slowest speed 8 - options were 16/12/ Verbatim & Memorex. I have even burned the same project to a BD-RE disk. Still getting glitches/pauses/audio breakup's at a small number of transitions (always in the same places). Many other transitions play back perfectly!! and all disks playback without any problem on my PC using Power DVD and on a Sony PS3.

My problem may well be caused by some conflict, using SVRT with panasonic files. Cyberlink seem to have sorted Canon AVCHD files, SVRT support so I am hoping for a similar fix for panasonic raw files at some future point.

I had the same lag here on my dvd.
I fixed it burning the final DVD using the slowest speed possible!
1x or 2x.
Burning in 8x causes lags thrust me!

But that doesn't make sense?!? i mean i burn at 8X and normally have 0 problems with burning movies? but hey i will of course try it out to see if it makes a difference

By the way.. Is it a AVCHD dvd you are burning or a normal DVD?

A normal DVD i reencoded my avchd files from Panasonic hdc-Hs300.
In the past i backup a lot of DVDs here some of them lags with 8x
Someone told me this tip to burn at 2x.
I didn't believe it either but its true.
the laser calibration looks better with 2x than 8x.
I made 2 discs here
the one i burned with 8x lags
the 2x Not.

Ahh but i have zero problems with rencoded to normal dvd's.. its only when i try to burn and play avchd files..

Shareonline,

Playback of AVCHD on DVD's is also my problem.

Took delivery of a new Sony BDP-S360 bluray today. The bad news is that the playback of my DVD-RW or DVD-R disks created using PD8 with SVRT enabled are worse than on my panasonic BD30 - lots of breakup's. No problems playing any other disks so I guess I will have to accept that SVRT is not yet working for panasonic cameras in PD8.

I will keep my fingers crossed for the next patch, in the meantime I will need to use alternative products, as I can't think of anything else to try at the moment.

Stuart,

AVCHD format CANNOT be played on DVD players. It is like trying to play DVD disk on a CD-player.

AVCHD format can be burned to a blank DVD though (space permitted) as well as Blue Ray discs but CAN ONLY be played on Blue-Ray players , Playstation3. DVD players do not recognise this format.

Hope you are clear now.

Read not to contradict and confute, nor to believe and take for granted... but to weigh and consider.

Andy,

I guess my first sentence in my last post was a bit ambiguous. I was talking about burning AVCHD content onto DVD disks, following on from earlier posts. I fully understand that you need a bluray player to play such disks.

Both my panasonic BD30 and Sony BDP-S360 are bluray players.

Sorry for any confusion.

Good clarification Andy/Stuart.
