Default X264 Project Announces Blu-ray Encoding Support

An anonymous reader writes "The x264 project has announced the first free software encoder to be able to generate Blu-ray compliant video. In addition, the announcement comes with a torrent of an x264-encoded Blu-ray disc containing entirely free content, such as the Open Movie Project videos. While there are still no free software Blu-ray authoring tools, hopefully this will change now that video and audio are taken care of so that everyone will be able to make their own Blu-rays without expensive proprietary software. Additionally, it seems the Criterion Collection is a friend of free software, having sponsored the effort to confirm x264's compliance with the Blu-ray spec."pa href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fdevelopers.slashdot.org% 2Fstory%2F10%2F04%2F25%2F1840219%2FX264-Project-Announces-Blu-ray-Encoding-Support" target="_blank" title="Share on Facebook"img src="http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png"/a a href="http://twitter.com/home?status=X264+Project+Announces+Blu-ray+Encoding+Support%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2Fb6KX bC" target="_blank" title="Share on Twitter"img src="http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png"/a/ppa href="http://developers.slashdot.org/story/10/04/25/1840219/X264-Project-Announces-Blu-ray-Encoding-Support?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./ppa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/CtIPt9bFGCPtkn8YBGhQqwSzwlQ/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/CtIPt9bFGCPtkn8YBGhQqwSzwlQ/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/CtIPt9bFGCPtkn8YBGhQqwSzwlQ/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/CtIPt9bFGCPtkn8YBGhQqwSzwlQ/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdotDevelopers/~4/BHm6Up7ArJ8" height="1" width="1"/
