Windvd Pro 2011 DOES NOT play Bluray movie from HardDrive

[myakoob]

I just purchased Corel Windvd Pro 2011 and i need to know if i can play a bluray DVD from a hard drive

It can play actual Bluray Disc of the computer but i burn that disc to the Hard Drive and open the Folder of the Bluray Movie, it gives me an errror message "Media Not Supported".

If i open a DVD Folder instead of a Bluray folder, the movie gets played.

I have windows 7 64-bit OS, Radeon Visiontek HD4670 Sound Card with latest drivers.

i just need to know if WinDVD Pro 2011 plays bluray movies when copied to the hard drive.

I can play using Open Folder and Open File option but the problem using this is other features of the movie like Subtitles, Audio Settings, Movie Menu's and other settings are not enabled when i play using the folder option.

But when i play it from the actual disc, it is the same like playing on a bluray DVD player

i can reach to the menu . . enable subtitles, change the audio settings . .

but when i copy the same Bluray movie to the Hard drive . .and i play from the Stream folder of the bluray folder . .
it just plays the movie but all other functions like reaching to the menu, enabling subtitles they do not get enabled

When i open the main Bluray folder where the movie is there . . i say to play . .it gives me a messsage "media not supported"

but if i got to the stream folder ..and open a file i can play the movie

it is a normal behaviour of the software ?

All i want to check or am i missing something or playing it incorrctly manner fromm the hard drive

or any one was able to play a copied bluray movie from the Hard Drive from the main folder that contains folders like BDMV, CERTIFICATE

Please help !

I can't answer your question....I don't know if WinDVD can play a Blu-Ray folder from a hard disc. If it's a home-movie Blu-Ray disc it might work.... But, if you bought the Blu-Ray disc, it's copy protected (encrypted). You can actually copy the encrypted files, but the "illegal" copy won't play from a hard drive or from a burned Blu-Ray copy.

(There are tools for cracking the copy protection, but they are illegal in most countries and we don't discuss them here.)
