Blu-Ray 3D Authoring
We can help you take your 3D content to market.
3D has left the cinema and Blu-ray is the optimum platform for the delivery of 3D content thanks to it’s high capacity, its full 1080p resolution and the backing of all of the major Hollywood studios.
re:fine are one of the first facilities in the UK to provide the complete service for Blu-ray 3D.
We provide an end to end service - from capturing the content from tape or file to authoring with chapter and scene selections and carefully placing menus and subtitles so that they do not collide with the action.
Our 3D lab is equipped with full screening and QC facilities. We test compatibility with multiple screens as well as testing for playback issues on players and consoles giving you peace of mind.
Our packaging design, duplication and replication services wrap the process up.

| Ingest/capture |
The capture process from tape requires separate passes for left and right eye this doubles the amount of encoding |
| Encoding |
The MVC encoding process can be 20 x real time |
| Menu design |
We can use 2D menus with a depth value |

Subtitles must have a depth specified this may vary scene to scene |
