    VLC Player Wont Play Blue Ray Discs.


    I cannot get VLC player to play Blue Ray discs, I have downloaded a file called libaacs.dll, and placed it in the VLC folder that is in the Roaming folder inside AppData but I still cannot get VLc to play Blue Rays discs.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Regards

    This page says you need 2 files, did you install them both?

    VLC Blu-Ray

    Do you get any error when trying to play BluRay discs?

    They just don't play.

    I think the problem is that VLC player will play Blu Ray providing they are not in disc format. So if you have downloaded a Blu Ray torrent then VLC will play them, if you have bought a disc then VLC wont play them. Sony are buggers as they make you purchase either Coral Windvd pro 11, or Nero Platinum 11 for £60 each, and pay some royalties to Sony in the process.
