Blu-ray Premium Surface
Disc prints would look a lot better if just one of the Blu-ray manufacturers would give us the same option we had for dvd, a premium glossy printable surface.
Why not? It's a mystery. |

River Pro Audio here in the UK do them. Photo Gloss disks.
RIVER Blu-Ray 25GB 6x Photo Gloss Inkjet - RIVER - River Pro Audio They also do a DVD version so when we send out our disks the surface is identical. |
Re: Blu-ray Premium Surface
Hot damn! The price is fair. I just inquired to see if they will ship to the states.

Amazon. Not sure about the glossy part, but using my old Epson 340 on the discs makes them look pretty nice. |

Re: Blu-ray Premium Surface
Glad I came across this because I have been looking for discs like you have mentioned as well.

Which is the best for USA buyers?
The Falcon? |
Re: Blu-ray Premium Surface
Anyone know where to get glossy dual-layer BluRays? River Pro seem to sell 25gb only.

Hmmmm.... Parallels H-Sphere Account has been suspended 's website seems to be suspended.
Not a great sign for continued availability, perhaps? |
Re: Blu-ray Premium Surface
I recently had the experience of running around my area frantically, near closing time on a Friday afternoon, looking for writable BluRay disks. Office supplies stores, department stores, electronics stores, computer stores. No one had stocked them in a long time, and bear in mind that I live in a major city. Best I got was a shop assistant saying that the only place he'd seen them was on eBay (which was where I was already sourcing them).
If the world would just move already towards delivery by USB and online download only, I'd be a lot happier, people would actually watch my work in HD, and I think my clients would be happier, because I could drop the prices. I find the whole process of producing disks quite time-consuming and fiddly, and I usually don't even make motion menus or anything fancy. (One pet peeve: videographers who advertise on their websites about how they've got amazing equipment and shoot in amazing high definition, and then have delivery by DVD only in their packages.) |
Re: Blu-ray Premium Surface
I hear you, Adrian, agreed.
Most of my wedding clients actually *do* ask for blu-ray -- and I give *every* wedding client a blu-ray regardless (with DVD as backup for those few in our area who don't do blu-ray). Most non-wedding stuff is for HD web. My interest in this thread only stems from the question of *glossy*/printable BR discs. In terms of printable blu-rays, I'm on it. And on it big-time! (while BR lasts!) |
Re: Blu-ray Premium Surface
Update on Pro River and dual-layer Blu-Rays -- apparently, they do sell them, though they're not listed at the website.
