So why is VLC Windows allowed to get access to these keys but not VLC Linux? VLC for Linux *is* 'allowed' access to the keys, if you have them - it just doesn't distribute them. But how do you get them in Windows? Maybe if Windows has them, you can copy them to the Linux partition? Assuming they are files.
The wiki article you pointed to says:
+++·············· If libaacs finds a valid processing key for the disc MKB version as well as a valid Host key and certificates, it can start the decryption process from step 2. However, the Host key/certificates are regularly revoked through the propagation of new BluRay discs. Once revoked, a drive is not able to read both new and older discs. This is usually irreversible and can only be fixed by providing a more recent Host key/certificate (for Windows users, this corresponds to updating their software player). ··············++-
So, windows users get key updates by updating their software player - as long as that player is not VLC. I assume that it is some player "in the game", perhaps the one that came with the bluray unit.
OR... maybe vlc people do not, but some other party packages vlc for windows with the keys "stolen" :-?
I have no idea about this, I do not have a bluray unit. I refuse to buy them, expensive and I don't see the advantage. But maybe someday I'll have to... so I'm curious.
@Basil : I agree with Carlos, I do not use DVD/Blu-ray disks any longer. I'm pretty sure the movie you want to play is available on the network. -- : ` _..-=-=-=-.._.--.
