The LG BE08LU20 works flawlessly with Final Cut Pro 7. Burning a Blu-ray disc could not be easier.

Great Burner
on June 15, 2010
Posted by: vigor2001
from San Antonio, TX
I love this burner. It was recognized by my editing software right out of the box. Uses sata e connection for ease of use and quicker burning / authoring. I use it for all of my video projects. I also have a shark duplicator with internal LG blu ray burners which work great as well. I'd never go with any BD burner other than LG!!!
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
Cons: Value
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Solid Bluray burner
on December 6, 2009
Posted by: tarheelone
from Virginia
I found the LG BE08LU20 very easy to set up and operate. Great burner with lightscribe support. I haven't been able to find any Bluray recordable disks with lightscribe in any search on the internet. Well worth the investment.
Pros: Quality, Features/Settings, easy to use, Performance, Style/Design
I would recommend this to a friend!

Unexcelled Features
on August 17, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this device about 10 years ago. It played any disc I threw at it. That made it perfect for importing virtually any media type into the computer for editing into my suite of Adobe editing software. And, after editing, I could write DVD and Blu-ray discs easily, reliably and quickly. Loved it.
Finally, as Windows progressed through Win 8, 10 and 11, I could no longer find a driver. It literally, fell behind it's operational window.
Pros: ease of use, Quality, Style/Design, Features/Settings, Performance
