Does anyone know the status of blu ray menu support for VLC? I heard it was being worked on but I can't find any current info on the status and challenges associated with it.

This release improves a lot the support of Blu Ray Menus.

It's the first version with BD-Java activated, so please try it :)

Sweet!

I just tried it on my Mac and it works! Blu ray on a Mac! :D

Wait, VLC can play protected Blu-ray discs? We don't have to use shady software?

Yes. It's not simple, but yes, you can.
