VLC plays Blu-ray disk as DVD
Blu-ray disks are detected as DVDs when you try to play a Blu-ray disk from 'My computer'. When I go to 'VLC - Media - Open Disk' there I can select the Blu-ray disk and it works fine.
Steps to reproduce
- Insert (commercial) Blu-ray disk
- Go to 'This PC'
- Right-click on Blu-ray drive and select 'play with VLC media player'
- You will get the following error message
'''Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd:///F:'. Check the log for details.'''
It's a small problem, but many people (including myself) will think it's not possible to play Blu-ray with VLC or there is something wrong with the AACS en key file. For example if you google the error message along with the tag Blu-ray you will see many people haven't noticed there are trying to play a Blu-ray disk as DVD.
