First Release Of Open-Source Blu-Ray Library - TheWhiteRabbit - 2012-01-01

Just saw this article today, and was wondering if this would work with XBMC?

Sorry if someone already mentioned this.

Quote:"VideoLAN and the libbluray developers would like to present the first official release of their library to help playback of Blu-Ray for open source systems."

Quote:This GPL Blu-Ray library doesn't circumvent any of the Blu-ray DRM procedures and does provide support for navigation/play-lists/menus on Blu-Ray discs. This library is currently supported on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X systems.
