Playing Blu-ray movies

To play a Blu-ray movie on your computer, there are several things you will

need in addition to your Kanguru Blu-ray drive. First you will need Blu-ray

playback software and HDCP supported hardware.

Important! Due to copyright protection features, certain requirements must

be met in order to playback BD movies on a computer. When using digital

video connections, both your monitor and graphics card must support High-

bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). Please refer to your monitor or

graphic card manufacturer’s web site to see if your hardware supports HDCP.

Some video cards that currently support HDCP:

• nVIDIA: GeForce 7800 GTX 512 / 7900 GT / 7900 GX2 / 7900 GTX /

7950 GX2 / 8600 GS / 8600 GT / 8600 GTS / 8800 GTX or higher with

256MB min memory.

• ATI: Radeon® X1950/ HD2300/ HD2400/ HD2600 series or higher with

256MB min memory.

Graphic card driver shall meet AACS compliance criteria. Please consult your

graphics card vendor for proper driver solution.

Certain software (i.e. particularly those including Video playback) may require

a considerably increased performance PC to provide acceptable results. While

this Blu-ray drive can read DVD-video or BD-MV(BD-ROM) discs, decoding

them for display requires separate MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoding that is done

by separate hardware (either an MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoder card or MPEG,

H.264 or VC-1 decoding done by your video card), or separate software that

you install to do MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoding.

Note: Apple has not ocially supported Blu-ray playback in Mac OS X yet.

There are several software solutions that allow you to write to Blu-ray discs, but

no applications for playback of HDCP video.
