I don't know in what way the commands differ for BluRay writing from DVD, but if joerg implemented the BluRay command set in AmiDVD, then it should be possible to do backups on BluRay discs using the ISO9660 filesystem (which AmiDVD uses as well), and that should be perfectly readable by our current CD file system. So I think it's a matter of when joerg gets a BluRay writer and some time/motivation/donations (hint ) to add support for it in AmiDVD.
Understood
and yes, sounds promising, perhaps joerg will look in his diary for the upcoming year. Ah! May looks free

As for UDF, the changes for BluRay are not very major, so in my opinion it would also not be too difficult to add the BluRay extensions needed to read those. DvPlayer's DVD plugin implements UDF as well, however as far as I know BluRay movies use some new type of encryption method, so I guess you would not be able to play most commercial BluRay movies due to the same reason you can't play them with DvPlayer's DVD plugin, only with the libdvdcss-based plugin, but since BluRay uses a different encryption method libdvdcss will not be very useful.
Yes, probably some time before this all gets implemented to a suitable standard and by then who knows perhaps there'll be a faster cpu to actually play them smoothly, I still refuse to believe in x86 port :-p
Thankfully though myself, I'm not interested in playing dvd movies or otherwise on a personal cpu. There is already dedicated far superior hardware available that I have and use. Don't get me wrong, the option is nice and I know you code such things, so no disrespect, I just wouldn't use it myself very often
digital media, mp4 avi etc is a different story
