How To Play a BluRay Disc in Windows 10

For copy protected movies and such, easiest way is with software like PowerDVD

For discs like those traded here (not copy protected), you can use something free like VLC.

YMMV

Although it should have the capability, the burner really wasn’t made for playing back discs – only for burning them. So that could be part of the problem. You don’t necessarily need a program specifically made to playback blu-rays discs – you just need something that can playback HD video. If you specifically look for something that plays blu-rays, you ‘re probably only going to find bulky programs with lots of fancy options – most of which will want you to pay for them – but you really only need a simple playback program like the previously suggested VLC. My recommendation would be, rather than trying to play back the Blu-ray disc using the burner, copy the main file within the blu-ray (the 00001.MTS file) onto your hard drive and try playing it using VLC (or some other video playback program).

In order to get files out of an .iso file without first burning the .iso to a disc, you have to mount the file in a virtual drive. After mounting it, it will appear like another disc drive in windows explorer. In other words, if your computer has a C drive and a D drive, after mounting the .iso in a virtual drive, it will appear as though there is also an E drive (or some other letter drive). And you will be able to click on that drive and see the contents of the .iso and drag or copy those files elsewhere in your computer.

For free software you can use to mount an .iso in a virtual drive, I use SlySoft Virtual CloneDrive. It’s the only one I’ve ever used, so I don’t know how good it is compared to other .iso mounting programs; but it’s worked well for me for the last several years.

Didn’t know about Win 10 supporting ISO files that way. I’m still using Win 7 and don’t plan on changing to a higher version until I feel that Win 7 no longer meeting my needs.

ron: To play a BluRay disc with VLC, you can go about it a couple of ways.Note: BluRay menus are not supported, VLC will only be able to play the content.

Option 1) with the BluRay disc in the drive, open VLC, under the ‘Media’ menu, select ‘Open Disc’, then check the BluRay button, make sure the ‘No disc menus’ box is checked, and then select the drive letter from the list and ‘Play’.

Option 2) From Windows File Explorer, under ‘This Computer’ find the drive letter for your BluRay drive.Right-Click on the drive, and select ‘Open’.Open the BDMV folder.Open the STREAM folder.The m2ts files are playable in VLC from there.

Good luck!

Well, Option #1 didn’t pan out.

I tried Option #2 & it worked !

After mounting her, I opened her stream folder & there was one big media orgasm !
