I've been testing the new BD Rebuilder Beta (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=143716) which basically allows you to back up a movie only or full blu-ray (including menus + extras) to BD5/9. My first test was a full disc to BD5. I can burn it to a BR-RE and the PS3 plays it fine. But when I burn to a standard DVD-R the PS3 shows it as a data disc (you see a list of files and you can browse and choose an m2ts file and play it but no menus). I then tried to patch it with AVCHD-Patcher - I'm not sure if this was the right thing to do but it now shows as a AVCHD disc but I get "this video cannot be played (80029945)".

If you create a movie-only DVD, the PS3 shows it as a AVCHD disc and it plays fine.

Any ideas? Is it even possible to play a full BD5 backup on the PS3? I'm using ImgBurn set to UDF 2.50 if that makes a difference....

Definitely. Some progress has been made here though: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=1229611#post1229611

AVCHD does not support BD structure menus etc. so you need a BD-R disk to do a full backup.
