No Blu-Ray! And after I several months to get used to this computer I still wish I would have purchased something else. The mouse pad does not have traditional right and left click buttons. This computer, the buttons are under the pad and it is easy for the computer to get confused. That is just some of the issues I have with this thing.

To be honest I haven't played any blu-ray disc in it yet. So I can't really help you with an answer, sorry

Wish I could be of help, but no luck here. Since HDMI has been available, I've made several attempts to multi-task with this technology, unsuccessfully. If I remember correctly, one of the reasons for the initial development was to put in place safeguards on content to prevent "pirating" hi-def, with the pressures of the movie studios and replaced component connections. Wish mine were a little heavier, then it'd make a good paper weight. But being no expert, it might seem that for less that 5 bucks, you might have better luck.

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

Great I ordered thinking it came with Blu Ray drive. Can it be upgraded? I saw a video on YouTube that mentioned Blu Ray, but didn't exactly stated if it had it or not.

As you get into the realm of high definition video you will definitely be pushing the limits of your computer. any details that you can provide regarding graphics card CPU etc. would help isolate the problem

Ingrid, I have a quad core with 4Gb of RAM and a 512Mb video card. I also have a 500Gb internal hard drive which is filling-up (little over a year's worth of video - gonna need to add 1Tb). I just got the Sony SR12 and LOVE IT! My computer can handle the editing - it's a little slow but not impossible - I'm using Pinnacle Studio 12 (Ulitmate version)software - VERY easy to use - and I'm burning DVDs and Blu-rays with it. You'll want a quad core computer for rendering - the software uses ALL FOUR cpus while processing HD material. I coudn't be more pleased with the computer, software and video camera combination. Editing (clippping, cut&paste clips, etc) could be a little faster, but when using native 1920x1080i resolution, expect a little slow-down when compared to SD (non HD) footage. Rendering times will be much longer for HD than SD - but go do something else for 4-6 hours while the computer crunches your 1 hour video. Then be totally amazed at the Blu-Ray (or regular DVD using AVCHD format) disc playing on your Blu-Ray player on your HD TV. WOW ! That is the way of the future - many say the future is NOW. Hope this helps. Tony PS...If you really shop smart, you could get all the hardware and software I mention above (not including the SR12 or extra 1Tb hard drive) for around $1,250 or so - INCLUDING a Blu-Ray burner for your new Quad Core PC and Blu-Ray player for your HD TV - NOT including the TV of course. That price includes the Pinnacle software too!

This has only VGA, no DVI or HDMI. I did not keep the computer as my needs required DVI in addition to VGA. While the picture plainly shows this, the unit does not have it. Extensive discussions with the company about adding on the option were fruitless.

It has HDMI. I ended up returning this laptop due to systems problems That could not be corrected. I bought a Toshiba instead

It also comes with a driver CD, with the power cord and VGA cable. The HDMI cables that Amazon sells for 5 dollars are great, good luck.

Alright, thanks for answering! I think I'll have to get a hdmi to vga converter to at least have the picture in HD then buy a bluray player later on.

I have my computer, a dvd player and surround system hooked to it. You can direct connect a dvd player with an HDMI cable.

This blu-ray player has just 1 HDMI Input, and 1 HDMI output, I have uploaded some pictures of the backside of the player for you to look at. you may need a HDMI switcher...

This site has a poor description. This unit has two HDMI inputs and one HDMI output, which should be sufficient.I don't have it yet but will be ordering it soon.Ron

I was glad to find a good choice of laptop with a DVD/CD player.... but this is not a Blu ray player. This computer will only play DVD/CD in its original state.

Hi Steve, Thanks for your interest! Regrettably, this laptop does everything but play Blu-rays. A person may watch regular DVD movies, record music and video, read and write CDs and DVDs in multiple formats, plus load apps with the SuperMulti DVD burner. We hope this helps, and we hope to get your business soon.
