“No, those are two completely different formats.”
A BluRay is a DVD. Specifically a DVD encoded in the BluRay format.
A DVD is a physical disk, not a format.
Completely and totally incorrect.
DVD and BluRay are distinct formats, with their own unique and different encoding, and DVD discs and BluRay discs are not the same thing. If you want to make a DVD, you have to record DVD encoding on a DVD disc. If you want to make a BluRay, you have to record BluRay encoding on a BluRay disc. BluRay can only be encoded onto a BluRay disc - it cannot be done on a DVD disc. The discs are not even read by the same type of lasers. A DVD disc would not even have the storage capacity to handle the BluRay encoded content even if it could be put on there.
