I've asked this question some time ago but never got a confirmation.

I frequently burn final edits of my HDV projects (typically from Sony V1 and HC1) onto "normal" DVD+R's to watch them in glorious High Def on my HDTV via my Sony Playstation 3...which is of course a Blue-Ray player.

This all works really well but you are limited to just over 20 mins on a normal DVD+R etc. as I and others have previously noted.

The question I have is this. Will a HD DVD player also play these very same DVD+R disks with .m2t files that I'm making???? (in HD of course!)

I don't have access to one of these players as I don't know anyone who went for that camp. I'm currently working on a 20 minute video project that will, ideally, have both Std Def and High Def delivery (to a wide audience) and I would like to know if this specific DVD+R route will be OK for HD DVD players.

Thanks in advance for any information!

No problem with HDV and HDTV mpeg2 content on DVD+/-RW for HD DVD player (Toshiba HD E1).

The disc has to be "authored" in order for the HD DVD player to play the files.

Toshiba HD DVD players will *not* play a raw HD stream burned on a DVD-R.
