eetaylog Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 depends what format the file is. if its the uncompressed .m2ts files that a standard bluray disc contains, then powerdvd9 will play them. if its an .mkv or h.264 file then vlc should handle it.

duffa Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 Blue Ray rip or actual Blue Ray content? its a 12.9gb MKV file and seems to be playing fast on windows media player also vlc keeps freezing with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eetaylog Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 just remembered that divx7 pack comes with the codecs youll need to handle most HD formats. install that and you should be fine with WMP11. ive run loads of .mkv files on WM11 with no problems with DivX7 installed.
