According the box the unit came with, Mac OX, Windows XP, Vista, Win7 and 8. For the AV connectivity, it will work with Linux, and WindowsCE.

It should work fine with your system. You will need to purchase a software video player such as Cyberlink PowerDvd or ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre to play Bluray movies since Windows doesn't have one.

It does not come with software to play movies. Software to play blu-ray movies is not free, so you'll have to buy that elsewhere. There are several products on the market. Reading a data disc does not require software and that'll work through Windows/Linux/whatever without any additional software. So if you're using this for data discs then you'll be fine. (To be fair, VLC can play Blu-ray movies and is free, but it requires installing a 3rd party addon and if you have to ask the question then you probably won't be successful doing it. So just expect that you'll need to buy software to play movies.)

I have not used that drive, but I have used a Western Digital 3TB USB 3.0 drive with no problem at all. No problem playing any format video that I have come across with the player.

Not likely, unless the blueray player runs windows, Apple ware or Linux....so really unlikely

This dvd player will not play a Pal BD disk or any Pal DVD for that matter. Gus K is wrong about no Pal Blu-ray. Just check Blu-rays at Amazon UK.

Corel Win DVD pro supports Blu Ray PB and windows 8 and is what I use. VLC DOES work BUT requires some modification & only plays the main movie (I also have used it).As for Authoring.... I would recommend goggling it. I am still working on that I am evaluating some different software at this time. I CAN say that it burns disks of ALL formats well.

Update: With the newest firmware the BDP 80 plays MKV just fine! Now my only wish is for H 264 playback. THEN it would truly be universal. (although limited to Fat 32 making large NTFS USB drives pretty useless for now)

Yes it does with the proper player software and a HDCP compatible monitor. I played a Blu-Ray movie using Nero 12 Kwik Media software on a Win7 Pro system. I the provided software on a Win8 Pro system and it works fine.

yes, bd-rom does play blu-ray. i had 2 bought at different times so not sure if this one had the software for the codac to playblu-ray. its setup to do that but u might need to buy the cyberlink powerdvd 13 which gives u the proper info to make your player do the blu-ray properly. I found out that i needed it for one of the bd-rom players! one had the software enclosed, one didnt.This is good drive, All BD-roms blu-ray ready. I have no trouble with drive now and bought the newer cyberlink-pwrdvd13 when found out the 12 did not allow my blu-ray to work decoding the info on blu-ray discs.

I've tried a few different video types but all through a smart bluray player. What are you playing? based on how it seems to function id say that should work.

I own the Samsung BD- C5500 and it does support Divx files,Xvid, H.264 BP/MP/HP. Excellent player for the money along with easy set-up.

I'd like to know the same thing. I own the computer but have not gotten it to play a blu-ray movie. ??!!

Thanks for your input. I'm test driving both CinemaTube and WDTV HD Live for use with PlayOn. So far, they're both working beautifully. Just got to decide which I like the best and return the other. Thanks again.

Is it possible to upload to Sony BDP-S560 codec software to allow it to read european blue-ray disks?

try this website- drivers.softpedia.com/get/DVD-BluRay-Media-Players -then you might find what you need per your system, hope this helps :) or do a search for your specific blu-ray player.

it connects perfectly,unfortunately it did not work properly,intermittently at best. i solved my problem which seems similar to yours by purchasing the two obsolete dvd players below,either one will work and you can find them on amazon for about the same price as a convertor.they have both HDMI and component (RCA) outputsLG BD530 1080p Network Blu-ray Disc Player orLG BP220 2D Blu-Ray Player with Smart TV (Black)
