Name is Andy Roman, can't find a way to change it!
Since VLC updated 3.0.24 Blu-rays fail to play. <ERROR MESSAGE BOX> Bl-ray error: AACS MMC failed. And. Input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL blu-ray:// media/andy/. I've used the flatpak VLC, MakeMKV integration for years. I like the flatpak setup because I never can get the packages to build and work.
If I roll back VLC to 3.0.23 all works fine. Mask VLC so it can't update for now. I have a registered MakeMKV and Mostly use it with VLC to watch my Blu-rays and DVDs, Not rip them. Storage is now beyond my pay grade. The rolled back VLC version works fine for now, I simply let them know about this bug and test I made.
If you would like, you can go over to the VideoLAN Forums / VLC media player for Linux and friends Troubleshooting. Topic is the same (VLC update 3.0.24 Flatpak. No Blu-ray play back) It's near the top.
The conversation ends like this "I think you have the wrong venue. VideoLAN does not make MakeMKV stuff.".

Re: VLC update 3.0.24 Flatpak. No Blu-ray play back
"I never can get the packages to build and work."
"[Debian 13 stable] BAD. Blu-rays play for up to 15 minutes and freezes. Debian uses the number 13 and calls it Trixie for good reason. Reinstalled it twice and had the same issues.
It works, but has many surprise bugs.
However the debian forks all seem to perform great."
What are the errors? Any user errors here?
VLC/MakeMKV integration works great on Debian 13.
Compile and install MakeMKV from souces and install VLC from packages sources. Done.

And there is no Official MakeMKV Flatpak. So... use official way to install it.
