Watching BluRay Movies on my computer

Post by K.T.Shoe[BMs] »

I'm a bit embarrass asking this :redface:

My new laptop has a BluRay drive. However, it won't let me play BluRay movies out of the box as there are no software that will let it do it.

I have downloaded VLC and GOM, but neither will play BluRay Movies at all :(

My older laptops also has a BlueRay drives, but they have Cyberlink Power DVD installed. My question, do I need to buy something like this to play BlueRay movies?

Wait what. And the Bluray player was a factor in my purchase.
Even though I never used it once in 5 years on my previous (awesome) laptop. :D
