Hoping someone can help me here. Im a total rookie so make an answer dummy proof in easy lingo terms    Am using Premier Elements 15 with a Windows 7 PC (all specs make it useable). I have numerous ".vob" type video files that I want to burn onto a Blu-Ray "50GB", but that's really a 46.6GB available disc. I've read on a few sites its possible to fit about 20hrs of SD content on a 50GB disc but cant find anyone talking about how to do it. My files total about 18 hours, are 46.86GB worth of content, and all are recorded in 720:480 with a data rate of 6000kbps, total bitrate of 6192kbps, frame rate of 29fps, and have a .vob filename extension. Their audio is bitrate 192kbps, 2 stereo channels, with 48kHz sample rate. Each file ranges from 200MB to 4GB in size so all that, plus needing to import some photos to create menu screens, and im wondering if I need to compress a couple of them to fit my 46.86GB onto the 46.6GB disc?? Do the files need to be changed to a different type to achieve this?? I'm REALLY hoping to somehow fit ALL these videos on a single disc while maintaining the same quality they're in now. I viewed the files through my computer while using my 55" widescreen TV as a monitor and they looked/sounded great!!! Im assuming, but not sure, the black side fill-ins have already been added to them so the 4:3 video doesn't get stretched and cropped to fit on a 16:9 screen so no video editing needs to be done (preserve the videos 4:3 aspect ratio btw). I want my end result to be able to play the Blu-ray disc of files on my PS3, XBOX, etc. Someone help!!!! I'll buy you an ice cream

Interesting. I didn't know that. It's not on the list of my CC programs.

That is correct as its part of Premiere CS6 which you need to install.

Encore gets installed along side Pr cs6.

This is what sd standard looks like in a hd frame on a bluray exported from E15.

Adding the SD files to an HD timeline will turn them into over-rezzed BluRay files, won't it, Ann? And that's not what the poster wants to do.

Also, buying a subscription to the Creative Cloud will not give you access to Adobe Encore. The program was discontinued a few years ago.

CC full or just PR CC gives you access to PR CS6: Encore CS6 is installed with PR CS6.

Edit: Encore was not "discontinued" so much as being declared "End of life." It is still available and can be used, but there is no support, and there are not fixes nor updates.

I still contend that this is absolutely impossible with Premiere Elements.

From what I can see, that may be true with Premier Elements. Looks like I bought the wrong product and must now try to get refunded. What do you recommend me use that I can do this on????????

It sounds like you're trying to create a DVD -- except that you want to create this DVD on a BluRay disc so that you can squeeze ten times as much video on it. And, unfortunately, that's not really possible to do. And, if you could do it, you wouldn't be able to play it in a DVD player. And I'm not sure you could play it in a BluRay player or game system player either.

A DVD is a DVD. 4.7 gig. (Or 8.4 if you're using a dual layer disc.) You can't create a 46 gig DVD. Certainly not with Premiere Elements.

Thank you for responding Steve but I find everything but your first sentence to be false. Below is a link to a thread on this site from 2010. It tells of a guy who put 9 hours (23gigs) of 720:480 content on to a 25GB blu-ray disc. Im just trying to double that on a 50GB blur-ray. The thing is, the people discussing were talking about nearly 7 year old software. Is there anyone else who may not a solution to my question???? Maybe someone can apply whats said below and put it into Premier Elements terms? Or is there another software known of that can do what im trying to achieve???
