Unable to burn to blu ray discs in PD16

I have just upgraded from PD15 to PD16 and now find that I am unable to burn to blu ray discs. Every time I try to do so a box pops up saying disc type not supported. I have Windows 10 Pro with all the latest updates and all drivers are up to date. It is not a hardware problem as I can write to blu ray from other software and play blu ray discs with PowerDVD 17 which I installed after PD16. It is an LG HL-DT-ST BD-RE BH16NS40 drive. I have uninstalled PD16 and then reinstalled but this has made no difference. Any suggestions as to what to do? Are there other drivers that need to be downloaded from Cyberlink or should I just uninstall and go back to PD15?

Before you go further, perhaps the message is in error or the disc is. Try burniing the project to either an ISO file or Folder set. That would tell you if the project is OK.

You can the burn the BR from the ISO or folder using the trial version of Power2Go 11 or IMGBurn. There is no need to run your project back through the encoding.

Here is the information on Power2GO 11. Be careful with IMGBurn, it wants to add on some junk programs ut it works well and is free. .

This the same thing that V13 did. You had to make an .iso image of a DVD, then burn that to DVD.

I haven't tried a BD yet w/16. .

Never, under any circumstances, combine a laxative and sleeping pill on the same night.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I have created an ISO file and burned to the BD-RE disc that I am using by using Roxio NXT Pro 5; I did have to purchase the Roxio blu-ray plugin to get it to work. I tried it with PowerToGo 11, which I have the full version of, but again that didn't recognise a blu ray disc. It seems that none of the current Cyberlink products work with blu ray so why have a blu ray option in the disc production settings? The blu ray writer and disc are obviously OK with other software so thinking of ditching Cyberlink after many year and trying Pinnacle.

I burned the individual video to Blu Ray but then created a disc with menus and cannot burn the full schmutter?
