Direct Blu-ray playback with VLC

[PresidentBrandon]

The official instructions (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=7009) did not work for me. I have the Flatpak MakeMKV installed, and I made, as instructed, a symlink:

Code: Select all

/usr/lib64/libmmbd.so.0

to:

Code: Select all

/var/lib/flatpak/app/com.makemkv.MakeMKV/x86_64/stable/active/files/lib/libmmbd.so.0

The exact line of code is this:

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s /var/lib/flatpak/app/com.makemkv.MakeMKV/x86_64/stable/active/files/lib/libmmbd.so.0 /usr/lib64/libmmbd.so.0

Anything else I may be missing? What am I doing wrong?

Hello,
I'm not fluent on Flatpack software, but if what I know is true, flatpack software is tightly contained and fenced.
Your VLC software is not (or is into a different container and thus another fence...) so it can't "reach" the MakeMkv library needed to work with BluRays...
You'd better get the tarball version of MakeMkv and compile and install it yourself, then applying the trick to have VLC open BluRay discs....
If you do so, do not forget to remove the flatpack version of MakeMkv in order to avoid any mix up ....
