Doesn't support Blu-Ray w/o having to load a ton of codecs.

Thats why I'm looking for a new player

See previous. VLC gives up the ghost on blu-ray video. and I DON'T want to load in a ton of different codecs in order to watch videos on the PC.

Looking for a self contained video player that can handle all of todays video formats

I use a LG Super Multi Blue. Installed in the normal fashion and it plays every thing I put in it. I didn't have to anything trick with codecs. I don't think it came with a CD. Just went to there web site and got what I needed, driver/software and it works.
