Anybody know of a writer that will take a movie files and write to a virtual folder that can be converted to an AVCHD blu ray disk or back to the cam.

Check out megui. I just found it and it's pretty slick. Only issue is that you can't render to m2ts or mts, so I'm pretty sure you can't get it back onto the camera that way.
Vegas does render to m2ts AVC, but it is only main profile, not high profile like those generated by the 150.
Let me know if you find something.

I haven't tested this yet but Compressor will output H.264 as follows:
Kind of a start toward Blu-Ray compliance...
Maybe soon we can look for a "big bag of hurt" setting right in Final Cut!

I have been able to convert a raw BMVD folder of MTS files taken from the HMC150 and make a BMVD red laser dye disc that plays exceedingly well on blu ray set tops from Sony - the 350 for example.
Looks great -- but these are just unedited clips.
The difference between my approach, and Shrigg's is that there is no recompression at all -- 24 mbps.
However, again just unedited clips.

Well I wouldn't call it "my approach" but so far is the closest thing I've seen to turning EDITED footage back into AVCHD... That is the primary issue, unedited clips are not too useful except as archival footage. In fact if we can develop a method where we can perfectly burn to blu-ray and still be able to pull the clips back into FCP from the BD-R's that would be pretty much ideal archiving!!
It'd also make for excellent client viewing copies of field footage etc since they probably wouldn't be able to do much with the Blu-Ray disc anyway.
David, were you successful using the Elurauser.com avchd to blu-ray guide for making a BDMV disc? Can you share your technique here? I tried to make one in Toast but it comes up as UNSUPPORTED DISC on my Panasonic DMP-BD35.
In Toast 9 (Mac), I burned a BDMV Folder Video Disc with the file structure and file names all renamed per the elurauser guide. After this extremely time consuming and tedious process I also tried just a simple "drag the BDMV folder over and burn" technique. Neither one worked.
Should I have burned a UDF volume like the elurauser guide specified? I admit I kinda glazed over when all those Windows screen shots came up in the guide and figured I'd just wing it and try Toast 9's BDMV Folder functionality.
