(blu-ray) vlc + powerdvd-files = av in vlc?

Postby a guy called guy » 06 Sep 2010 20:19

hi,
i'd love to use vlc as my blu-ray software. too bad there's no possibility because some license stuff.
but. i'm owning a oem version of powerdvd 10 (was in the sata-blu-ray player-box included). so maybe there is a possibility if i copy some file in a sub directory from vlc.

so here are my question:
- do someone know which files i have to copy?
- in which folder i've to copy those files?
- is it allowed / legal?

So you want to play Blu-ray discs/videos in VLC? ATM this is not possible. Just copying files won't provide a playable source either.

If you want to playback Blu-ray video then you need to decrypt the disc (using a tool such as DVDFab HD Decrpyter) then create a playbable video file (e.g. M2TS/MKV).

As for legality, depends on what country etc., however for backup purposes should be fine.
