Hello Melissa, yes it will play blueray files with extensions such as .mkv, .mp4 or .avi. but not a ripped blueray if thats what youre asking. And yes it'll work with up to a 2TB drive. I have a 1TB western digital drive and works fine.

This unit plays 1080P Hi-Def files of almost any type imaginable, it supports external drives up to 2TB in both FAT32 OR NTFS. I have no experience with capture devices formatting Blu-ray files. As far as I know, most higher-end capture programs can accept the HDMI output of a blu-ray player but still will only create a 1080P file structure for it. The Micca only accepts USB file inputs but does so seamlessly - mine struggles with USB-3 external devices and would recommend using USB-2 devices up to 2 TB each. There are 2 USB inputs that can run 2 devices simultaneously.

It won't play blue ray files as they come in blue ray discs. They need to be remuxed or converted to Mkv or Avi. You should be able to plug your 2TB drive.

I think if you have a portable blueray player with a USB hook up it could maybe work. Hard drives yes I use a 2.5 hard drive 1 tb. I'm pretty sure a larger on would be okay. This device is amazing thougn plays sd cards too.

This drive is absolutely awesome. It works with PC and Mac and does not need any software. It plays commercial DVDs as well. I don't have any Blue Ray discs but I think it plays blue ray movies too. Hope it helps.

I'm sorry Larry, but I really don't know the answer to that. I don't see why it wouldn't, but my system predates blue ray players. I must have a Dinosaur downstairs!!

I have the device connected to 42" connected to composite input and using a blu disk player. I used normal DVD disk movie in the blue disk player and everything works OK.I did not try blue disk movie to see the results yet.

My experience was that with windows 8, you need additional software to play blue rays. It did play CD and DVD though.

Hello Sergio, it should work with TV and Blu-rays. I use mine with my Samsung SmartTv and it reads the drive just fine. I would suggest reformatting the drive.

Hello, yes it does play Blue Ray files. I havent used the player in years. The network connection had to be fast or connect the player directly to the HDD.This might help. http://www.pavtube.com/guide/watch-blu-ray-with-seagate-freeagent-theater-plus-for-mac.html

Depends on what you're trying to play for media. It will still play DVDs and HD-DVDs. It will not play bluray discs.

I have had no troubles with it hooked up to my surround sound and projector and have a 1 gig external hard drive connected as well. It plays anything I have very well.

This will work if you have a "coaxial output" on your blue ray DVD. You should get a high quality cable to go from your DVD player to this module. This will allow this device to work as you want it to. You can then connect any input that accepts typical RCA connections on your stereo or other device. I hope this helps.

I have systems with Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. I haven't tested all aspects with both, but can attest it operated immediately when I plugged it into a Win 8.1 laptop. It should both play back and burn audio discs, DVDs, and will read software programs recorded on optical discs. What it will NOT do is handle Blu-ray formats.

It only has an hdmi output that plugs into a tv. It has android software so if you can find an android app for it, it will work. I'm assuming you mean a 2tb hard drive or possibly a 2gb USB drive. Either one would need to be connected to the Internet to stream to the device.

Yes this is possible. I have connected my hard drive to wd router and is able to play the movies from my sony blu ray player and logitech revue. This is not certified dlna but it supports upnp which is the actual protocal behind DLNA. Please also remember that the files will play only if your tv/player supports the codecs

The does not have a CD or DVD or Blu-ray drive so will not play Blu-ray dics. I bought a portable disc drive to burn CD's / DVD's that attaches via USB.

I have two of them and they both play CDs and DVDs just fine . I would recommend updating the firmware to the most current one . You most likely though will have some issues playing some of the newer blu ray releases but otherwise it's a great player . Good luck
