The best BlueRay disc burning software
-
I have an LG BlueRay disc drive that is compatible with M discs. I am trying different burning software apps that will burn 25 GB M discs reliably. If any members have experience with specific software, I will love to get their suggestions / recommendations. Thanks in advance!

Doing data backups or are you that lone guy who still watches movies with a BlueRay player ?
I bought a Blue Ray player, a Blue Ray movie, watched it once and then used the player for regular DVDs two or three times and haven't touched it since. It's (literally) gathering dust somewhere.

Somewhat similar - but my only blue ray device is an internal drive on my 'best' desktop. I probably used it for something else, but the only use that really comes to mind was testing that it works. I don't believe I've ever watched a blue-ray movie. Then again, I'm satisfied with raster-scanned black & white TV.

Thanks to all who responded. I tried 5 different options: The windows burner, Cyberlink, UltraISO, a 10 year old version of Roxio, and ImgBurn. So far ImgBurn is my favorite by far. And it's free!

Looks like it is a potential new incorporation in Free Tools Discussion Boards[^]
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I like ImgBurn as well, but some users have reported that the installer bundles some unwanted things...

HA! A bluRay player is the only way to watch movies if, like me, you live where even 5Mb broadband is but a distant dream, promised now for over 7 years, but yet to be delivered! 8)

Because it is not for interacting, it is just to have a place where good tools are listed and easier to find. If there were more activity, you would have to "next page" a lot to find the posts. As it is, you can navigate reading the subject and possibly find something useful faster.

Sure, me too. Works like a charm!

The site I found indicates ImgBurn hasn't been updated since 2013. Am I looking at the wrong site? I found it on other sites, but the same version 2.5.8.0

www.imgburn.com And 2.5.8.0 is the version I have. The file date I have on disk is from 2013. Isn't it sad that people are now so used to relentless updates, they automatically assume that something that old must surely be broken/no longer working? Kudos to developers who realize some software does reach a completion point, and that more addons just means more bloat. I'm looking at you, Microsoft...

:sigh: Since 2013 there have been a number of significant Windows updates, including Windows 10. A lot of software that operates on a lower level has been updated to work with or work correctly with the newer operating systems. Also, security updates are a consideration. There is FAR more to consider than "relentless updates". I've been burned a few times when using older software that was no longer supported. In this case, switching to a different program would probably have little impact on me, but having been burned, I pay attention to details.

CDBXPP yes, it's old, ( so am I and mostly functional ). I never write full speed, usually at half. Only burnt 1 M-disk, 1 BD-R, and a pair of REs, ( plus gobs of CD's - DVDs ). Burn, verify, and post ( paranoia ) check all no trouble. Only 25 GBs, as the 50s cost too much and the 25s are big enough. ( usually ) Simple interface, doesn't fight or hide things, don't think that there is much that the hardware can do that it doesn't do gracefully.

If you want a fun project, you can always set up Plex on a spare computer in your home network 🤓 You'll need a lot of hard drive space if you want uncompressed Blu-Rays though. But I can't argue with the simplicity of using a Blu-Ray player... Just plug it in and it works.

Well, I haven't been burned (har) with imgburn yet. Been using it longer than I've been using Windows 10 and it's always worked just fine for me. If it ever fails, there are multiple free alternatives to go to.

I suggest you look at the item from Jacquers below. Test the main ImgBurn executable on the VirusTotal website if you want to see for yourself.
