Windows 4K Blu-ray Player

[LeMarchand]

Spotted a reasonably priced drive and installed it in my HTPC (as I'm unlikely to be get a PS5 any tine soon and wanted to avoid yet another box), however playing discs does not seem to be easy!

 

I've followed various tutorials on using VLC without luck and was hoping someone could recommend something that will actually play 4k discs. At the moment it looks like Cyberlink, but I don't really want to spend £55 when I don't want most of its functionality. Most others I tested were OK with standard Blu-ray, but required Premium to play 4k, which I don't mind as long as it actually works. Anyone used Gom Player Plus, which is at least reasonably priced?

Don't forget you also need the right CPU, Graphics Card, HDMI cable, and Monitor

...as I found out the hard way. Seems like you need an older Intel CPU. Not a happy bunny.
