VLC crashes without libaacs, and gives a BD error without libbdplus (for the Star Wars discs).DVDFab Media Player is a Windows based Media Player software. My configuration: Windows 7 64-bit, 32-bit version of VLC, libaacs (from here and libbdplus (extracted from the archive here), along with their corresponding %appdata% entries. I haven't watched a whole movie yet, but over several minutes there are no problems. Perhaps these are the supposed BD copy protection artifacts, as DVDfab Passkey Lite appears to have gotten rid of them. Large gray areas would appear on the screen, as well as bands across the video that look like extremely compressed video. I just bought a DVD drive to play Star Wars Blu Rays, and found that a couple minutes into the movies, they would start displaying large artifacts, a few per second. I then opened VLC and "opened media" etc the normal way. I tried one bluray from 2011 and one from 2013, that is spanking new. It's kalled Passkey lite and it's free! Using that, VLC can play bluray! Just let the Passkey "run" first when you play a bluray. I downloaded the free verison of DVDfav Passkey. ![]() My guess is that the free "Lite" component of the s/w (which never expires) is not being used to unlock the disc, but the Blu-ray component is, and that component is limited to a 30-day trial, after which I'd have to pay. However, each time I start Passkey Lite, it now shows an expiry date for Blu-ray discs which is a few weeks away. And subsequently, if I load the Blu-ray disc, run Passkey Lite, and then start VLC, it works! Then, as per shakeninsane's post, I installed Passkey Lite from DVDFab. But when I tried to play Dallas Buyers Club (which had just arrived from Amazon), the typical error "VLC is unable to open the MRL." appeared. My laptop is running 64-bit Windows 7 Professional, and initially I installed 32-bit VLC as described by jordangaga and talon_262. I was seriously annoyed (to put it politely!) when I discovered that it wasn't going to work until I purchased some software and a licence! However, after much Googling I found this thread, and I must thank jordangaga, talon_262 and shakeninsane for their helpful posts. I've had a laptop with a Blu-ray drive for 2 years, but only recently tried to play a Blu-ray disc for the first time. Their media player sucks, loses audio/video sync all the time, and when there's rapid movement the video stutters. Repeated ad nauseum for a few minutes then VLC crashes.Īdendum found Canadian versionof DVDfab Media Player ( is unavailable or may not exist.) Installed this and I can watch the Blu-ray, yay! Unfortunatly its only a trial version but it looks good so will probably end up paying for that. VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd:///H:/'. Opened Blu Ray by selecting Media->Open Disc, selecting Blu-ray (showed device K:\ RED 2) then clicked play Installed DVDfabPasskey (taking extra care to decline all the crap) OK, so I got a new Blu-Ray disk, "RED 2", that can't be played on any other Blu Ray player (makes 8 I have now) so I thought I'd try again.ĭownloaded latest version of VLC, made sure it was 32 bit version.Ĭopied KEYDB.cfg to: %appdata%
