Can VLC play Blu-ray films?

I just tried to play a Blu-ray disc and VLC says Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'dvd://E:\'. Check the log for details.

I have a disc in the drive!

• Will it not play because my monitor is in 4:3 view or something?
• What can can I use to play it?
• Any simple programs?
• Any quality software I can use now? Or is everything paidware?

I have an LG drive on an HP computer using Windows 7.

Yes VLC can play Blu-ray discs.

You will need to update the keys database and AACS dynamic library, both of which can be downloaded from http://vlc-bluray.whoknowsmy.name/.
