Said it before...picking PC Blu-ray software sucks

Post by JetFred »

I need a reliable software package to play Blu-rays on 2 PCs without any hassle. Any hope?

I dont understand. I just put my disc in and go. Are you trying to watch one cd on two pcs at the same time?

I haven't used it for quite some time, but LEAWO Blu-Ray Player was unquestionably the best 100% free Blu-Ray playback software I ever came across.

I have tried free Leawo and it's not bad.

You "go" with what software? I was saying that if I have to pay, I need to be able to install on two PCs.

Oh, and I was still never able to get VLC to play the newest Blu-rays. I'd like something that works out of the box and also updates as necessary.

Download AACS Updater and just run it periodically to get the newest keys.

Since we discussed it in this thread, I much prefer Leawo now, I don't bother with VLC.

Most likely just whatever came with Windows.

It may be VLC I use. I use that for most stuff. Looking online I see lots of support for Aun Player, Media Player Classic (MPC-HC) , and Leawo.
