BD Rebuilder: Playable on standalone players??

[The_Unknown]

Hello,

some hours ago I finished a conversion to 21,4 GB (when using the option to convert to 25 GB).

The resulting Blu-Ray works without any problems in PowerDVD. But will it also work on standalone BD players like the Samsung BDP 1600? Because I don't own one some of your experiences would be really interesting.

And another question: Why did BD-RB a shrinking to 21,4 GB but not to 24,5 ~ 25 GB?

Why not try the 'List of compatible standalone players' thread?

You can't get anything like 25Gb on a disc - there's also a margin built in to allow for the 'flaky' edges of some discs. If you want to increase the capacity use the Custom Size option.

OK, I posted into that topic.

Well for starters its not actually 25GB. Its japanese GigaBytes or 25.000.000 bytes = 23.5GB. BDRB compresses to an estimated 22.66 GB leaving a little room in case it turns out a little bigger. So even 24.5GBG would be too much :)

OK, I see :) Thanks for the explanation!
