Hi Easyrider
If I am understanding your questions correctly, are you actually asking about which formats are supported for making Blu-ray discs ?
If this is what you mean, then there are two separate topics in your message.
1. Yes 1920x1080-60p is supported in Movie Studio Platinum 12, however not for use in Blu-ray.
The most common use which is allowed, is for creating YouTube videos.
When you import a 60p video into a new project and use the Match Media function, your Project Properties will be set to the same properties as your original video. When it is time for rendering your project, you won't find any default 1920x1080-60p templates, however you can customize and existing template and manually change the Frame Rate to 60fps.
2. The maximum resolution supported by the existing Blu-ray specifications is only 1920x1080-60i. Way back when the Blu-ray specification was written and agreed upon, this was the maximum resolution that hardware could support at the time. Blu-ray does support 1280x720-60p, which looks quite good on a 1920x1080 TV. I would encourage you to try this option.
A new Blu-ray specification has just been released and is called Ultra HD Blu-ray.
This new specification does support much higher Frame Rates like 60fps and higher Resolutions like 4K 3840 x 2160.
You will need to buy a Ultra HD Blu-ray Player to view discs using these new formats. Major manufacturers are just about to begin sale of this new technology.
I have absolutely no idea if or when Sony Software will update their DVD Architect software to support this new technology - I hope they do.
Regards
Derek.
