[MacDV] Re: HDV 16:9 vs 4:3

[Chris S.Newell]

In order to make a HiDef DVD, you'll need a Blu-ray compatible DVD 
Burner.  This will require new hardware, so its not as simple as 
pushing a new software update.

See http://www.blu-ray.com for more details.

I was under the impression that iDVD 5 and DVDSP 3 can both make High
Definition DVDs from the appropriate HDV edited source material in 780p
if not 1080i. I do not think the quote you site is correct. I also
think Toast 6 can burn HDV creations and play them in 780p if not
1080i. But I may be wrong. This view is based on assumptions not hard
fact.

We are certainly in a confusing time of transition with some of the
parts not adding up to a sum of the parts.
