I have video footage shot in 1920x1080 50p and i want to burn this footage in original quality in the blu-ray format.

I'm wondering what to select, i have the choice of 1080x1920 or 1080x1920p or 1080x1920 24mbps

Dose anyone know which burning option will give the original or at least the least amout of quality loss?

I have so far tried burning onto a BD-RE in 1080x1920p mode, but movement looks jerky.

trying the other two full HD options, it seems to takr ages rendering, which means that the original video is being seriously converted frame by frame.

So dose anyone know which mode works best for blu-ray burning at the best quality for 1080 50p footage?

Stay with the format closest to the original format of the video file.

Do you see the jerky movement in the blu-ray disc or on your computer preview screen?

Is your computer up to the task? Please do a dxdiag.exe evaluation of your computer and attach the txt file in your response.

I havent managed to play the finished blu-ray on my computer as i don't yet have 3 rd party bluray playing software installed, as windows 7 dosen't support blu-ray playback, so i played the disc in my Panasonic blu-ray player and realised the problem by watching it on my tv.

my computer is very high spec and brand new, so i wouldn't say it was a computer issue.

when you say "Stay with the format closest to the original format of the video file. " what would you say the nearest option is for 1080x1920 50p ?

What's the difference between burning a blu-ray spec disc and a AVCHD format BD-r ? will AVCHD be burnt in its original 50p

My Panasonic BD player can play AVCHD but i'm concerned if the format is compatible for future players and other brands?

Hi,
Don't burn at the Burners highest recording speed, drop the burn speed down a notch or two, this may eliminate the jerky movement, als0 you may get better results turning off shadow file...and make sure you have all the latest drivers from the Graphic card site...NOT windows Update...

I'm burning the disc at 2x as it's a BD-RE type with 2x only as maximum speed.
the reaon i'm using an erasable disc, is so that i can reuse the disc until i'm happy with the result, then i plan to copy it onto a standard BD-r
