Abstract

A method (and system) for directly writing video information to optical disc media, e.g., random. The method includes converting a video information in a first format to a raw video information in an uncompressed format. The method also includes resizing the raw video information in the uncompressed format into a size associated with a desired output media format and a desired TV standard and adjusting the uncompressed format in the size associated with the desired output media format and the desired TV standard to a frame rate associated with the desired TV standard. The method processes the uncompressed format in the size and the frame rate into an elementary video stream and processing the elementary video stream with audio information in the desired output media format and the desired TV standard to form video and audio information in a presentation format including a beginning and an end based upon the desired output media format and the desired TV standard. The video and audio information in the presentation format is continuously transferred from the beginning through a common bus to an output for a disc writer free from an intermediary storage of the video and audio information from the beginning to the end. The method then writes (e.g., burns) the video and audio information in the presentation format from the beginning to a first portion of an optical media while other portions of the video and audio information are being processed to the presentation format.
