When we have got awesome videos (HD), Blu-ray movies, Blu-ray image files (ISO), or recorded camera videos for big moments, we would like to back them up or burn to Blu-ray discs. Mostly, users find it hard to burn Blu-ray on Mac as Apple has not yet released any Blu-ray burner software. Consequently, video fans are all the way looking for the best Blu-ray creator for Mac.

The best Blu-ray Creator: imElfin Blu-ray Creator

There are an array of Blu-ray creator programs in the market. Some perform pretty well, but come at high prices, such as Adobe Encore. Some are priced reasonably, but don't function well. Among peer Blu-ray creators of the similar price-tag, imElfin Blu-ray Creator stands out with versatile features and competitive price. That's why I call it the "best Blu-ray Creator" that you should at least have a try. This program empowers users to burn videos, Blu-ray image (ISO) files to Blu-ray/DVD discs or ISO image files. Also, ISO files can be directly burned to Blu-ray or DVD discs. By using the built-in video editing and menu designing panels, users are able to edit videos before the burning/converting as well as customize the disc theme, menu, buttons, transition style, etc. The provided 2D-to-3D conversion feature makes it possible to work as a 3D Blu-ray creator.
