Makemkv will open some Blu-ray discs but not others.

[DaveB]

Hi all. I have tried everything I can look up. I am having a problem with playing and opening some Blu-ray discs. I cannot play any Blu-ray discs in VLC or any other player. Also Makemkv will open some of my Blu-rays but not all. What am I missing? Any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

If using Ubuntu or any of the other buntus you will need to install libdvd-pkg. The file libdvdcss2 sorts the encryption problem,

I am using Linux mint.

You will need to search for the file libdvdcss2 to play DVDs on VLC.

To rip blurays on MakeMKV you need to fork out for the registered version, the free version only rips regular DVD disks.

Like I said Makemkv will rip some of my Blu-ray discs but not all. I don't understand that.

What do I need to do to play DVD's and Blu-rays?
