dont any free so called stand alone 'BR Verifiers' exist at this time?, and if not, do we Need at least one OSS licenced BR compliance Verifier today?

as for so called 'Non-compliant BR Encoders' it seems really odd that the professional global post production community would pay around the $5K per copy for 'Non-compliant BR Encoders' or even a wopping $25k per unit for Unverified Encoders.

it seems that $25k per unit could get you a reasonable amount of one time OSS compliant BR x264 code patches if your Org is/were in need of bulk purchase, and thats before the potential x264 licence chances for commercial users come in.
see:http://www.netblender.com/main/resou...-ray-encoding/

hell you might even get some of the worlds Devs actually interested in making a professional grade intigrated GUI generic IDE suite and related tools for generic post production timecode based (Virtual/remote) video capture,Transport, Decoding, editing , Encoding etc in time...., if you put your $25k per unit corporate money,backing and effort into OSS production in this finantial down turn...., and in time, turn a better profit on your corporate books in the next quarter or two perhaps.
