720p50 supported by BlueRay disk ?

Hi
I would like to deliver my video's in the future on Blue Ray disk.
So I checked what the best video format would be to shoot/edit and deliver considering Blue Ray disk is the distribution media.

I found, that from shooting and editing point of view, I should use 720p50 - so 50 frames/sec progressive (also considering most displays of the viewers are not full-HD, but what they call HD-ready... something like 720p resolution)
My camera is the Sony EX1, which supports this resolution/frame rate.
I am using a windows PC (XP professional 32bit)

I found than Adobe Encore supports Blue Ray authoring at 720p50 with MPEG2 and H264 codecs

But what about the standard consumer BlueRay decks ? What is the best format from compatibility point of view ?

I like 50p, as it gives very smooth picture with quick movements - I often do sport videos.... But I am really not sure, whether 50p is supported by Blue Ray consumer decks

Anyone knows and can advice, please.

regards, Ulli
