Inability of Premiere Elements 2019 to burn BluRay disks

After upgrading to Premiere Elements 2019 and creating a video and trying to burn a Blu-Ray disk and searching for why I can not burn a BluRay I read:  "With each new release of Adobe Premiere Elements, Adobe reviews industry standards, market trends, and user feedback to define the new feature set. In Premiere Elements 2018, support for Blu-ray and AVCHD disc burning has been removed. "

 

Why?  Why eliminate a very useful function of the program?  AVCHD - Ok, I have never used that, but Blu-Ray?  You should be adding BluRay 4k.  Very disappointed.  Who would even think that this function would be removed?

 

This was never identified in any of the ads for the program.

 

Very disappointed.  Will not recommend this program any more.

I think it had something to do with licensing.

Terrible idea! I'm now trying to find where to get 2018, or decent burner software.

It gets worse: making a dvd is now only available on Window. Support for the Mac has been dropped.

I agree with you that Blu-Ray burning should not have been deleted.  That said, Adobe keeps track of what customers use through a feedback system.   Customers can turn that off, but by default it is on.   Apparantly, Blu-Ray and Blu-Ray 4K are not in high demand.

I've tried contacting Adobe about this but haven't received any reply.  Am currently searching for programs to replace all my Adobe Products.   Murray Dunford

Good luck Murray.  Technology marches on.  There have been 8 track tapes, cassettes, VHS, DVDs and many more.  DVDs and Blu-Rays are being replaced by higher quality formats.  Sharing work now favors online links over handing out disks.   I think Adobe is following the trends.   Frankly, I'm happy that I don't have to buy discs anymore and can share my family videos "online".  Most of my famly watches anything I create on their phones!  Discs just don't work now.
