I am a new user of Windows 8 and I believe Windows 8 will not let me feel disappointed. However, I am also a video lover who like enjoying videos on my computer. There is a problem, that is, the Windows 8 Media Center cannot play Blu-Ray video, then anybody knows how to play Blu-Ray video on Windows 8?

Hi Nancygo,

Thanks for posting on Windows 8 Forums.

Follow the following steps to Play Blu-ray discs or Blu-ray ISO movie and media file on Windows 8:

Step 1: Connect the Blu-ray driver to your Windows 8 PC via a USB connection. The USB of the driver should be above 2.0.

Step 2: Free Download the UFUSoft Windows 8 Blu-ray Disc/Blu-ray ISO Player and then install it.

Step 3: Insert your Blu-ray disc into the Blu-ray driver. Next, open your Blu-ray movie by just pressing the "Open Disc" in the main interface to select Blu-ray drive and then click "OK" button to load the Blu-ray directly. You can now enjoy your Blu-ray movies on Windows 8 PC.

Step 4: Stop the playing the Blu-ray movie on Windows 8. If you want to stop playing the Blu-ray disc, you only need click Stop Button and eject the Blu-ray movie.

Too many folks have the misconception that any DVD player will play Blu-Ray disks.
Nothing could be further from the truth. A specific Blu-Ray player is required.

Windows 8 will not naturally play DVD's. A special 3rd party program is required.
Many guys have installed VLC Player to do that little job.

Whether VLC Player will even play a Blu-Ray disk, on a Blu-Ray player.... I don't know,
because I don't have one. Sorry about that!

Maybe someone with experience with playing Blu-Ray disks, on a Windows 8 PC, will come on and give us the
answer.

Cheers Mates!
