Some ABCs of BDAV Discs

BDAV refers to either the transport stream format used for all Blu-ray contents, or the plain format which is intended for home videos, without any interactivity. It is considered as an alternative to BDMV discs made by professional authoring studios for commercial Blu-ray movies. As known, most of the early standalone Blu-ray players are released with Firmware allowing playback of unprotected contents on BDMV discs, but currently, a majority of them have removed that feature, leaving BDAV discs the only unencrypted Blu-ray format supported on standalone Blu-ray players. In fact, BDAV disc format is considered more consumer-oriented, because it is designed in part to provide compatibility between Digital HD Camcorders and standalone Blu-ray players and it allows customers to author simple video & audio contents with no menus.
