[LINUX/MAC/WINDOWS] Blu-ray Disc support in XBMC? With menus and AACS/BD+ decryption?

No support for bluray menus in XBMC (yet). There are attempts to support HDMV structures, but they are not ready yet. Using AnyDVD-HD only allows you to watch "native" blurays in XBMC, but without menus (no JAVA in XBMC)

I bought myself a hd-dvd/blu-ray combo drive for my xbmc hardware, and figured I'd see if there is any luck on getting playback of either yet?
I'd love to have hd-dvd/blu-ray playback so I don't have to rip my collection... Big Grin

as said - you can watch blurays, but without menus so far. And you need a 3rd-party tool to remove the AACS protection (f.e. AnyDvD-HD).

does this include hd-dvd as well? And does playback work in xbmc linux?
