Well if you just want to play it on the computer then the format doesn't matter (as long as the mplayer or whatever you use can play it). It's just a data disc.
I want to play it on larger screen TV (it supports all latest formats). I don't have (yet) Blu-Ray player and I don't think it is possible to play HD mp4 files on any DVD player, is it?
If you want to watch it on an actual Blu-Ray player then it'll need to be authored and mastered in the apporpriate way. I think they are *.EVO files in some special directory structure (similar to DVD video). Also, they use UDF 2.5 for the filesystem. Blu-Ray has lots of DRM and commercial licensing requirements to make a player, so legality is questionable :)
That is why I can barely find anything on how to encode the HD mpeg4 files onto a disk. I can make UDF file system on a standard re-writetable DVD-RW (have done it many times) my only question is the encoding format/structure. I think I need Blu-Ray burner, don't I?
