To be honest, this is worth a look - it seems a little more 'done'
than my patch and it seems that the crypto keys are included in the
libbluray binary (legal issue for us?).
I'm going to contact this guy and see whether he is using the standard
libbluray that already exists (which isn't that good and some of it is
C++) or whether he wrote the lib himself. It seems like it's probably
something new to me (as I don't think libbluray has stream fcns -
seek, read, etc...)

I'm starting to think that maybe a library is the way to go now...
There are a few library projects on doom9 it seems. Maybe i'll contact
them and see how advanced each one is....
