Hello, four days ago I got a Blu Ray drive and set up VLC to play my Blu Rays. I placed keydb.cfg and libaacs.dll in the correct places, and I got all of my Blu Rays playing properly. Four days later I came back to watch another Blu Ray and found that *none* of them work now. I get this error: [......

I've been watching MP4 files I downloaded using yt-dlp from HIDIVE and using vtt subtitles from the same site, and I find that whenever a new line of subtitle appears on screen there's a bit of a skip, like a brief freeze. Most easy to notice when camera is panning. If I remember, this happens when ...

Is there a way to get like an official release compiled version of libaacs.dll? The readme says to "compile it yourself" which is something I've never done, so until now I've been using the libaacs that comes with the long-defunct AACS Updated project's installtion. I got to thinking I'd l...

I watch anime in VLC with subtitles. When a new subtitle line comes on screen there is often a stutter. This is easiest to notice in panning shots or maybe during credits. It may not always happen. Not sure if all subtitle types do this, but have definitely noticed with ASS and VTT subtitles. My spe...

I just watched an MKV file of a movie and used the "add subtitle file" feature to use an .ass subtitle file and found that there was a brief but noticeable stutter when a new line appeared. Most noticeable when, say, camera is still and an object like a plane is moving across the screen at...

I have an 8TB HDD with MKV shows and movies on it network shared plugged into my router. I'm able to use the Xbox One VLC app to watch MKVs on that drive. However, I also have some subtitle files on that drive and I want to use them in a show. When I select "add subtitle" in the VLC app, t...

I've used MakeMKV to rip my bluray of the Steins Gate anime. I wanted to watch using some fan-made subtitles, which are .ass files. So I can watch the MKV files and use VLC to "add a subtitle file." Turns out these subtitle files were made for a fan release that did not include the 90 seco...

I recently ripped a movie to MKV using MakeMKV. I ripped the DTS HD MA track and the plain DTS track (http://i.imgur.com/B4T6PP3.jpg). In VLC, I can't really tell which is which (http://i.imgur.com/mO2vLRT.jpg). How can I tell which track is DTS HD MA and which is DTS?

I sometimes use headphones with my Fiio E10K USB headphone DAC/Amp. I've also been using VLC to watch some Bluray discs that have Dolby TrueHD 2.0 channel audio. The Fiio E10K is of course not a home theater A/V Receiver and doesn't decode formats like Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD (if understand correctly...

Using Ver. 3.0.4 here. When I skip ahead to a location I find that the subtitles begin to appear eventually, but are noticeably delayed, as in they show after they should. This is a problem for me because it means that if I go backwards 30 seconds to listen to something again my subtitles will now d...

I use VLC on a laptop with an Nvidia card an integrated Intel graphics. I've been trying to get VLC to use the Nvidia GPU but I can't. Here's the Nnvidia Control Panel: http://i.imgur.com/AM6qJ7R.jpg. As you can see, the option for selecting nvidia GPU rather than integrated is grayed-out. Here are ...

One more thing: I actually resolved one random failing disc by turning off bluray menus here: http://i.imgur.com/yvldeTd.jpg. No reason at all that ought to help, but could try it since it inexplicably fixed one of my issues.

Glad you've made some progress at least. So FindVUK believes it got everything it needed, but VLC still says there is no key. Random thoughts I have are these: Is it possible you have another keydb.cfg file somewhere that VLC could be looking at, one that doesn't have the keys you just got from Find...

Nothing I've done can make my VLC run Blu-Rays. [...] Blu-ray error: No valid processing key found in AACS config file. I get that error when the keydb.cfg file does not have the key for the specific disk I'm trying to play. In other words, every other thing could be working correctly but without t...

Here is my folder structure, for your help: http://i.imgur.com/SwmJ7fh.jpg. As you can see, it's AppData > Roaming > aacs and AppData > Roaming > bdplus. Windows 8.1, but don't think that makes a difference. Sorry if my previous posts weren't clear about the folder structure.

So I have LG Blu-Ray driver (BP06LU10) and Windows 10 64-bit. I successfully installed VLC 3.0.3 with both keydb.cfg (saved on C:\ProgramData), libaacs.dll (C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC), & vm0 folder (C:\Users\...\AppData\aacs). This is the link where I got vm0 from as latest: https://forum.d...

And how do I get the keys? the blu ray runs even though it's an old model If you're saying that the keys file at whonkowsmyname doesn't contain a key for a disc of yours, look into FindVUK, which can be used together with DVDFab Passkey to get the keys. I used the FIndVUK method to get the keys for...

Hey all, I was inspecting media information in VLC about a blu ray disc of mine. I noticed that discs that have what I assume is actually 24-bit audio, VLC shows it as 32-bit. See screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/9TQwUXl.jpg. I googled and apparently this isn't anything new. "Applies to all 24bit...

Nevermind, I got that disc working. I already have the libbdplus dll in my VLC folder. I downloaded the source of libbdplus from here: https://www.videolan.org/developers/libbdplus.html. I looked into the read me file and saw this: Configuration directory (vm0) is searched from following places: Lin...

Found a BD of my parents' that does not play. It's Castaway. Error is: "Your system BD+ decoding library does not work. Missing configuration?" Here is a screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/OwhThCM.jpg. Here is what my VLC folder looks like: http://i.imgur.com/ouKKDzQ.jpg. This is VLC 3.0.0.1 I...

Yeah, kind of insane. But you can also find massive KEYDB.cfg files that have most VUK in them. Definitely, but in my case at least I was surprised to find that most of my discs were not in that DB, so the FindVUK method was essential. The DB had entries with titles that sounded like my discs, but ...

^ Do you have the .dll that I've highlighted in this picture http://i.imgur.com/iHrFRlK.jpg? I assume that's what can do the BD+ decoding. I don't know if that came with my VLC installation or not. It might have been added when I installed the AACS Updater.

What bluray is that?

It's disc two from this right here: https://www.amazon.com/K-Blu-ray-Artist ... n+season+1 (try not to judge ahah).

Multi-format version?

Yes, I have the multi-format.

I've been trying to play Bluray discs on PC for some time and have had a nightmare of it, stumbled upon this thread in search results. My understanding (could be wrong about any of this btw) is that DRM is largely responsible for the bizarrely terrible PC Bluray playing market. Something to the effe...
