BluRay playback with VLC 2.0 (not RC)

Postby Caesar_091 » 19 Feb 2012 01:28

Hi all,
trying to play a BD I get these two errors:

Code: Select all

Blu-Ray error This Blu-Ray Disc needs a library for AACS decoding, and your system does not have it.

Code: Select all

Your input can't be opened VLC is unable to open the MRL 'bluray:///Volumes/FIRST_LIFE'. Check the log for details.
Is there somenthing I can try to get things to works?

Here the full log:

I can confirm, I faced exactly the same issue with just released VLC 2.0 on my Mac 10.6.8.
Any solutions??

You need libaacs.0.dylib (on Mac OS X) to decrypt AACS.
You can use search the forum with keywords blu-ray or libaacs.

EDIT:
The information is totally wrong. I'm sorry.

I used the libaacs.0.dylib, but I am still getting the same error message as Caesar_091. I can't figure it out.

This is a bit hard to debug, if you are geek enough, come to discuss on IRC for that.

It seems to me that the experimental part of blu ray plaback on VLC 2.0 is still very experimental. So the question is - has anyone gotten it to work? And if so, how?

the only way i got a blu ray to play was to copy the blu ray to hdd and start playback via command line like so:

Code: Select all

/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC bluray:///Users/<username>/BLURAY/
the mac gui seems to mess up the paths.

no luck with any other method so far. in a different thread i found this command line which might help you figure out what's wrong with your config:

Code: Select all

BD_DEBUG_MASK=0x1FFFF /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC -vvv bluray:///Users/<username>/BLURAY/ >& /tmp/vlc.log
helped me quite a bit, but i still can't solve some errors.

(btw. i've tried the 2.0 + 2.1 2012-02-17 x64 nightlies and the 2.0.0 release)

libaacs seems to need a fix for Mac.

Hi, I'm new to this board but have been watching avidly. One question for you Jean, (or others). I have downloaded two files from the projects page. These are libbluray 0.2.1 and libaacs 0.3.0, do I need to do anything with them to facilitate BR playback?

Thanks.

I have done the same as Ambi Valence, I tried to do a ./configure, make, make install on each library and I still cannot play blue ray on my mac. I don't know what to do next.

@seantnichols
are you trying to open the blu ray via the gui? it doesn't work currently. open the terminal and type:

Code: Select all

/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC bluray:///Volumes/500GBUSB/Movies/Blu-ray/XMEN_FIRST_CLASS/
this should work.

I just tried to play with terminal but it did not work.

Code: Select all

open of `bluray:///Volumes/ZODIAC_DC_B5 /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC bluray:///Volumes/ZODIAC_DC_B5' failed
I also get the two error messages that were posted previously when using the GUI.

Has anyone got a blu ray to work?

is the blu ray you're trying to play encrypted? if so, apparently the mac version cannot play those at all yet.

@lorker I was using that exact command via terminal to run it, after having numerous failures with the gui and eventually ending up here. :P I also tried running it from the internal HD as suggested with the exact same result.

I've tried 3 discs, all decrypted, all full rips (not main movie) with menu's. I'm starting to think this could be the problem, maybe it will only accept a main title with no menus... more testing to be done later today.

Do other titles appear in the menu?

Am getting the same thing here with VLC 2.0.3 on Mac OS X 10.7.3:

When trying to open via the GUI, I also get this error:

Blu-Ray error This Blu-Ray Disc needs a library for AACS decoding, and your system does not have it.
Is there anything I can do to help with the troubleshooting?

Well, you are missing an AACS decoding library, which might be available on the Internet. From what I've heard, current versions don't support Mac OS X though.
