I am searching for any software which plays bluray discs.
Requirements :
- price is not important (it can be free or commercial)
- it must be able to play BD discs from blurays AND FROM HDD !!! (so no PowerDVD)
- it must support menus, including java based menues (so no XBMC/openELEC/MediaPortal/VLC)
It must play also encrypted discs, either alone or with AnyDVDHD.
Any tips? I can't believe there's not a single one BD player software, since there are tons of DVD players
The reason why I started this is that I'm trying to play downloaded and/or ripped bluray folders without having it burned on a BD first. Most of the software on the cnet link is useless crap unfortunately, I tried most of it already
Thanks Barry, but VLC doesn't support menus, and makeMKV is a ripper. XBMC does support some menus, but no Java menus.
ITSM - that's good, but PS4 isn't software which I could install on my PC :-)
It's weird but I really start to think that no such software exists. It's really, really unbelievable.
That's true, PS4 is hardware - sorry about that.
Are you sure VLC doesn't support menus? I've downloaded some fake Queen DVD's over the years, and I'm pretty sure I saw menus, and could navigate in them...? Like Houston '77... Right click on the folder which contains everything, and chose "Play in VLC."
