Codec for blu-ray

Hello joseleonar;

You can try a media player like VLC.

The Blue ray playpack requires a codec that SONY charges about $20 per license to use so MS does not include it since it would add $20+ to the cost of every copy of windows --- The Blue Ray player should have come with a third party software to play Blue Ray disks If it did not then you'll need to buy one ( PowerDVD has a 30 day free Trial that you could use while deciding on which program you wanted )

VLC does not play blu-ray (at least the free version). Laptop should have the app to play blu-ray. Mine came with PowerDVD 9.

power dvd and arcsoft are the worst software i have ever used in my life. either are 100$ plus they crash all the time. put my pc blue ray in a drawer and bought a blue ray player for the tv.

I use corel windvd pro and nero hd platinum to watch my blu-rays.Both work very well.
