How do I play Bluray movies directly from the disk?

[Vojak]

Hi Everyone,

I have installed MAKEmkv from flathub and activated it using the code that lasts for 1 month. One post from Mike says that you can integrate Makemkv with VLC inside the integration tab but when I go there I don't see any further settings or options. I have run this command in the terminal too

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s libmmbd.so.0 /usr/lib/

but it didn't do anything. After I insert the BD into my PC the image in MakeMkv just keeps spinning but nothing is happening. I don't understand what I did wrong. Can anyone help?

My system is OpenSuse Leap 15.6

I *think* you link libmmdb to libaacs and libbdplus and any program that uses those uses libmmdb via hook.

Although ideally I think you can put libmmbd.so.0 in /usr/lib and be done with it if the program uses it. Regardless, in the end the user has to load it.

I'm not sure what the "proxy service" does, but maybe you could run that on loopback and use the IP in your player?

In MakeMKV settings go to View > Preferences > Integration and click on VLC.

I already went there but VLC doesn't show up.

It took such a long time for this post to be approved that I got help from different source. What I did was I installed

Code: Select all

org.videolan.VLC.Plugin.makemkv

and

Code: Select all

org.videolan.VLC.Plugin.bdj

from Flathub and then 3 BDs played directly in VLC. However one movie still doesn't work. Apparently VLC needs to be installed from Flathub too.

That being said ripping on its own still doesn't work. I think that guide posted by Wagonfixin needs to be updated it's 15 years old. I imagine a lot has changed in Linux distributions since then.
