    So far I do not see our software doesn't work. Most of the issues are to be resolved with updated drivers and correct configuration of the BIOS.

    Please read this post, and this post for this issue.

    For AMD chipsets, try updating the RAID or ACHI drivers. For example this link has an updated driver for the 700 series or newer AMD chipsets:

    http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownloa...windows.aspx#1

    If you have an older AMD chipset you'll need to search AMD's site and downloaded the appropriate drivers for your chipset.

    Re: Error reading DVD disc.

    Actually, after following these instructions, I can now play tracks, but there's no menu and I can't tell which is the main track. So it's theoretically possible, but it's a huge PITA unless you also pay for Blu-ray player software. (Unless that's also on the disc that came with the drive.)

The only bottle neck I can think of would it playing through USB. I just wonder if that would cause the bluray playback to be choppy or unstable.
    Sorry this took me a while, I haven't been in the office that much this week. I've got the drive hooked up, but VLC tell me:

    Blu-Ray error:
    This Blu-Ray Disc needs a library for AACS decoding, and your system does not have it.
    It may be part of the disc that came with the drive, but all I really use it for now is D2D, and it can identify discs as-is, it just can't play them.

    Please keep in mind that the Intel Rapid Storage Technology is not included in any windows system upgrade, nor it would prompt you for a newer version. Even Intel website driver upgrade detection does not tell you about the upgrade. It can only be found with Control Panel/Program Features.

    If you can check hardware device manager and see if it has Intel chipset. You can go ahead and install the latest IRST. It won't hurt your system as if you don't have correct hardware it will just be disabled or not allow you to install.

    - nVidia SATA: need to update the driver.
    - DVD clone software installation (AnyDVD, Slysoft clone): please disable them

    They were discussing the DVD disc Detection and how the VUDU Beta Disc conversion was not reading it. Someone proposed using an external disc reader and someone else followed up by a simple question asking if the disc reader plays dvds/blu-rays) The main problem is the VUDU to go not being able to recognize any discs.(I have this same problem and support after listing the known way to fix the problem, which did not work, said they would check into it)

    The Question about the External reader's playback is irrelevant to support and those trying to help (outside the person being asked that is.) Hope that helps!

    By the way, Vudu support is absolutely no help on this whatsoever. I'm thinking they don't want to admit that their software wasn't ready for prime time.

    Playing back your Bluray via USB is NOT a VUDU problem. In fact you don't use VUDU software to playback your Bluray content.

    There are many things to optimize your system for BD playback.
