Re: LG BU40N PowerDvD playback

Yes I use the same steps on vlc to open the UHD discs, my doubt at this point is the startech enclosure that is not compatible, in europe where I can buy Vantec NST-510S3-BK 9.5mm slim sata case.

Re: LG BU40N PowerDvD playback

My laptop is completely compatible with i7 8750H cpu and UHD 630 gpu onboard. My doubt is that the Startech enclosure is not compatible with powerdvd playback. If I buy Vantec NST-510S3-BK 9.5mm slim sata case there is some chance that will work or BU40N not support powerdvd playback, someone tried.
