Maybe it works with Wine?
I tried wine once, it was a disaster. I can't recall what little program I was trying to run but it never did. It seems that what I want to do isn't doable on Linux and requires software that has to be purchased at that. That's disappointing that Linux can't do this. Looks like I'll have to use my new Blu-ray burner for data backups. Bummer. I really wanted to make that gardening video HD. No wonder people use their game boxes and buy media centers that have hard drives in them and then stream things from the internet. Basically, other than storing data files, Blu-ray isn't worth much except for commercially made media. Well, even if I knew this before, I'm still glad to have the thing. It certainly holds more files than a DVD. If anyone knows of a tool to do this, I'm all ears. Dale :-) :-) P. S. Time to go to the doctor and get my weekly shots.
