Virtual Blu Ray player or Blu Ray drives external programs... Which one? Myth or Muffin?

Greetings one and all,

Alrighty then let me are the sitch. When I bought my computer two years ago I got to worth the money, cash, dough or dollars to buy, so I had to skimp on what I wanted. The main thing I have the proverbial axe was the disk/drive Blu Ray, my PS3 could handle plqaying already so I was not too broken not to have one in the computer, after all, it was a short walk to the center of pop entertainment in the dics and press play.

Well, it was then and this is now and I have become totally lazy and should rather not do the loooong now trek to the PS3 to play my Blu Ray DVD more and prefer to have this accomplished through my computer without the need to install another drive. So now I'm looking for ways to accomplish these tasks by getting either a Blu Ray drive/external drive, or use one of the many "virtual drive Blu - Ray reader/programs I've seen available for download on the net?

Now the first choice is to say... the external hard drive is pretty easy to install, just pop something cord USB into the USB port and tah dah Uncle Bob, you have a Blue Ray disc/player! The second path, that the program Virtual Drive/drive Blu Ray, becomes a much more confusing question, a question I am now in touch with you very smart people. Okay here's my stupid question...  These programs will work through my factory installed Combo drive CD/DVD Drive to play my Blu Ray DVD on my calculation? Or do I really have to buy something else to achieve?

Hi Tiffany Snow,

 
Welcome to the Microsoft Community, thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community. You will need a physical bluray player to read physical disks. A virtual disk appears only on the computer disk images.

  • Transfer Media Player on a hard drive external?

    I run XP and bought an external hard drive to my music collection.  Is it possible to transfer the Media Player itself on the hard drive external?  I'd rather play on Media Player on those of the drive, that there is none.  Choose a record and that's all that you can play at the same time; No shuffle or several artists in one sitting.

    Any suggestions, anyone?

    There is no need to transfer WMP itself hard disk external, WMP can perfectly handle music on other players.

    In WMP, please press F3 to display add it to the library, make sure that Advanced Options are displayed and add the folder music on the external hard drive in the list. Now, all the music on the hard drive will be added to the WMP library.

  • X230T USB 3 port sleep problem with external Blu - Ray drive

    Hi all

    I bought a new LG external blu - ray drive and I have problems with it sleeps very quickly.  It is recognized in Windows 7 and will be available for a short period of time after I turn it on, but if I don't use it for 30 seconds, it's in a kind of fashion 'sleep'.  It works perfectly on the single WE port 2.0 on the X230T so there must be something with the 3.0 port.  The drive is powered by an AC adapter and USB 3.0 cable included one.

    I tried to disable all the properties sleeping USB in all areas of power management and power options in Windows.  Also enabled and disabled USB hub root energy saving.  Also, I went through the BIOS and threw the USB options as well and can't find why it is go to sleep so quickly.  I have the latest firmware on the drive, as well as the latest drivers Lenovo USB 3.0 for the X230T.

    I guess I'm out of luck at this point because I think I've tried all possible solutions?

    Thank you.

    Hi again,

    I have looked on the specs and do not see why this problem should occur. I would make sure that the BIOS is updated, if you have not already. The latest BIOS for your machine is 2.03 and came out a month ago. This update, you can find here. And if this does not work, can you check and publish what are the settings in your BIOS Config > USB Configuration?

    Best,

    Adam

  • I need help I downloaded music and the drive external on the C drive in windows media player and everything is now copywrited and unavailable

    I'm so frustrated.  I recently downloaded my drive external hard music and family video on my new computer on windows media player.  I have literally thousands of songs and it has been downloaded to the C drive, but when I try to play anything, an exclamation point is in front of each song and I am unable to listen to it.   Then a page comes from microsoft about copyrights etc. and tells me to download windows 7 (a dictation of direction page 17), but I have windows 8.  Please help me to release my music that I downloaded from the years of music collection.   Also, if I pick the music on the start menu, in that it sets my X - box and only 5 cd that I downloaded on this computer appear and I can't get out of the Xbox and would like to get out.  Thanks, Rachellynn5555

    The message you see seems to indicate that the music is protected against copying and that you can transfer a limited number of times.  This is common for music from many online stores.

    Where did you first buy this music?
