[MPlayer-users] What is required for libaacs support for libbluray in mplayer?

[max muster]

 Hello Guys.

Here are my working instructions for playing Bluray with MPLayer.

I use MinGW32 environment on Windows 10 for compille libbluray/libaacs/libbluray/MPlayer.
I install MinGW32 via media-autobuild_suite script:

https://github.com/m-ab-s/media-autobuild_suite
1. Download and install the following Java environments via link below:   OpenJDK 15:
   https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-downloads.html
   jdk-15.0.1_windows-x64_bin.exe
   
   JRE 8:
   https://www.java.com/de/download/manual.jsp
   jre-8u271-windows-x64.exe
   jre-8u271-windows-i586.exe

2. Set system variable:
   Name:    JAVA_HOME
   Path:    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-15.0.1

3. Download und compile libaacs and libbdplus libraries via links below:
   Download libaacs: https://www.videolan.org/developers/libaacs.html
   Download libbdplus: https://www.videolan.org/developers/libbdplus.html
   Download ANT: https://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/ftp.apache.org/dist//ant/binaries/
   Extract binaries package and move containing folders BIN,LIB,ETC to /mingw32 (x86) or /mingw64 (x64)
   Compile libbluray library (without option --disable-bdjava-jar !!)

4. Move compiled DLLs ("libaacs-0.dll", "libbdplus-0.dll") to corresponding MPLayer binary (MPLayer.exe) directory und rename to "libaacs.dll" and "libbdplus.dll"
   Move JAR files (e.g. libbluray-awt-j2se-1.2.1.jar, libbluray-j2se-1.2.1.jar) from source code sub folder ".libs"
   to corresponding MPLayer binary (MPLayer.exe) directory.

5. Download AACS keydb.cfg file via http://fvonline-db.bplaced.net and move it to "C:\Users\<YourWindowsUser>\AppData\Roaming\aacs"
   For example "C:\Users\WonderFox\AppData\Roaming\aacs". Just create an "aacs" folder if it doesn't exist in the subfolder of "Roaming".

6. Now run MPLayer: "mplayer -cache 8192 br:///E:" in case E: is your Bluray drive

Explanation:
------------
The AACS keydb.cfg file does not contain the appropriate Device- and/or ProcessingKeys for AACS library for your Bluray device.

Solution:
---------
Download FindVUK via link below:
https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=172472

Install one of the following programs:
DVDFab 10.0.4.8
Passkey 9.2.1.1 or
Media Player 3.2.0.0. 

Registered versions are recommended !

However, newwer versions of DVDFab has stopped supporting these players for newer discs. Latest DVDFab programs only allow retrieval of UnitKeys.

Start FindVUK and follow the instructions.

Solution:
---------
Check if the AACS keydb.cfg file is located in "C:\Users\<YourWindowsUser>\AppData\Roaming\aacs"
For example "C:\Users\WonderFox\AppData\Roaming\aacs". Just create an "aacs" folder if it doesn't exist in the subfolder of "Roaming".

Solution 1:
-----------
Copy JAR files (e.g. libbluray-awt-j2se-1.2.1.jar, libbluray-j2se-1.2.1.jar) from source sub folder ".libs" corresponding MPLayer binary (MPLayer.exe) directory.

Solution 2:
-----------
Delete system variable "JAVA_HOME"
