Does this Nero version enable a Blu Ray to play on a laptop? If not what is needed.

I do not know. I have not been able to get the program to install on my PC.

Yes, it does play Blu Ray. This is a great laptop. I have more than pleased with it. Let me say though, if you are using it for gaming, make sure to turn on the fan boost. It gets hot quickly and starts to slow down. I have a stand with two extra fans for when I am doing graphic intensive work. With everyday use, no heat problem. Great laptop. Have fun with it.

I have used several: DVD FAB, Nero 11 and several iso burners. The only thing I tried that failed completely was the Windows burner. It is an absolute bust at Blu-Ray. Blu-Ray burning is a real resource hog I am using win7, quad core running at 3.2Ghz and 8 Gig of RAM and when burning I still can't do anything else.

Yes, I have successfully played DVDs on this model. The user manual says it plays DVD-video, DVD-R, DVD-R DL in addition to Blu-ray. It also plays CDs, SD cards, and USB media.

Yes you can play Blu-ray movies. You need to buy a software program to play the movies. Yes it's a combo drive and will do DVDs and CDs.The Blu-Ray program I found that works best on my Windows 7 is from IDeer.

try this website- drivers.softpedia.com/get/DVD-BluRay-Media-Players -then you might find what you need per your system, hope this helps :) or do a search for your specific blu-ray player.

No! and you probably already found this out on the blue ray side... This feature only works on DVD's They have disabled this feature on PowerDVD 13 and 14 for Blue Ray discs.

You need to format it as a FAT32 drive. It comes pre-formatted with the NTFS file system--which can't be read by most Blu-ray players.

Yes, but you need a third party software to play DVD and blu-ray, it comes with a Cyberlink bundle, to do this trick.

Hi Terry&gt; Yes Nero Blue-ray Player which is included w/ Nero 2014 Platinum works perfectly well for viewing both regular DVD's & commercial Blue-ray movies viewing! If you don't like the Nero Blue-ray Player you could also use either ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre 6 or PowerDVD 13 Ultra et cetera as all these do work well on both Windows 7 as well as on Windows 8.1 (x64). As for Windows Server 2012 R2 do rather use PowerDVD 13 Ultra as the others are not compatible w/ it!

I called a tech and he said no, and yet some people are saying yes. Does the Nero Disc (came w/ player) do anything to allow streaming from pc to player?

I think what you're trying to ask is does this fits inside of a laptop. No it is an external drive. It will play blu rays and DVDs provided you have the appropriate software.

According to the installation guide, it will play Blu Ray but it says nothing about writing to Blu Ray. It says to use HDCP compatible display and VGA card to get HD digital output. I would contact Asus direct or try http://www.cyberlink.com
