today BD recordable disks have prices that make sense as well as

but as i never had one i want to ask - how it is used under FreeBSD.
Does growisofs work just like with DVD-R or other tools are needed?
I have an LG BH12LS38 blu-ray burner in a machine I bought in
december. Running 9.0-RELEASE
I haven't burnt a BD-R yet but I have used k3b (which is just a gui
front end to growisofs,mkisofs,cdrecord,cdrdao,etc) to burn plenty of
single layer dvd's.
From the info I can see that cdrecord and growisofs list blu-ray in
features.
The prefs show the drive info with BD-R BD-RE listed in write
capabilities. Available space jumps in sizes up to 50GB and it asks
you to insert a blu-ray medium if file sizes total over 8GB
It looks to have all the support needed.
As for authoring a blu-ray to play in your home theatre it could be
another story - I haven't looked into that.

I am not sure about the ISO formatting needed for this, the blu-Ray
specifications I believe call for the file system to be UDF version
2.5/2.6. I don't believe FreeBSD supports greater than UDF 1.5. I ran
into this issue a while back after building an ISO image server to
present an NFS volume to VMware ESX servers to allow O/S and Software
installation media for mounting as guest Machines CDROMS. I also chose
to write scripts and mount the ISO images as file systems to allow
access to them via Samba when mounting the CD Wasn't necessary. A few
software DVDs we had at the time used UDF 2.0, and I was unable to read
them.
This server was built on FreeBSD 7.2, but I haven't noticed anything in
release notes since stating an update to the UDF version support. Of
course that doesn't mean it hasn't been updated, and either not
included, or I missed them. Just something that I think you should
check into before getting to far into any project with Blu-Ray burning
on FreeBSD.
