I just installed the 64bit version of VLC (2.1.5) but get this error when I try to play a blue ray disc. I am not to up on blue ray codecs and such so some guidance would be appreciated. By the way this is installed on the new Windows 10 preview. The Windows 10 preview does not have Windows media up and working yet so looking for an alternative.

Sorry about bringing this up, but I just downloaded VLC (64 bit) on a 64 bit Win 7 machine. I get the exact same error message. I tried following the instructions in the link provided in the previous response, but either I did something wrong which is admittedly the most likely problem, or this fix doesn't work. Any ideas?
