I have recently downloaded the 2018 trial for prem elements 2018 and loaded a pre created Mp4 from imovies to see if I could export to DVD in blue ray format. The menu only allowed me to burn at 720 and stated that the 2018 version does not support export to DVD blue ray. is this correct?

    Earlier versions of Premiere Elements are readily available on Amazon and eBay.

    In addition, third-party programs like DVD Architect can take completed movies from Premiere Elements and burn them as DVDs, BluRays and AVCHD discs.

    I'm not happy the burn to Blu Ray disk option is gone.  What kind of users gave feedback that option should be removed?  Ridiculous.

      This all has to do with the dolby issue.

      Adobe Creative Cloud apps use native OS support for Dolby

      I've been making Blu Ray disks with menus, using Premiere Elements, since 2010.  I need Adobe to think harder about fixing the issue rather than remove the feature.

      I agree with Ann. If you want to burn BluRays, you'll need to supplement the program with a third-party disc authoring tool like Magix DVD Architect.

      Yes.

      Although you can create a Custom output to save your movie as a BluRay movie with no menus and you can burn that to a disc, the 2018 version includes no tools for creating BluRay discs with menus.

      Yes.  Premiere Elements 15 can burn Blu-Ray discs with a Blu-Ray burner.  It can also burn "AVCHD Disks" that are burned on DVD burners to DVD disks, limited to about 20 minutes and have to be played on Blu-Ray players.  Last but not least, it can burn fuzzy standard definition DVDs for DVD players.

      I should probably add that I've had Blu-Ray burning work well with Premiere Elements.  However, there have been posts here where upgrades to Windows 10 and associated drivers have developed conflicts for a few.  I've never been sure if Windows 10 and the drivers that come with the Blu-Ray burners always mate well with Premiere Elements.  It could be that it works for most so is not reported here.  But, when it is, solutions have seemed challenging.
