Can this device encode a blu-ray compatible file?

It is just an analog to digital converter ( I used it for VHS tapes). Then I use IMovie to make DVD. I have not looked a Blu-ray movie maker and burners.

Yes, it does. The remote actualy have convinient buttons to do it very easily. Just be sure to update to the latest version, i had some issues with the player out of the box, but once I update firmware worked fine. Just one comment, I convert several of my blu rays to mkv and then encode it myself to take less room on my hd, I had some issues with subtitles doing that, but I am awere that is mostly for the encoding that I used. For multiple audio tracks just be sure that your receiver supports the format of the source and you are set.

As long you have the correct codecs for your OS, it should play. It has nothing to do with the dvd or blu ray drive, rather the player (software apps) playing the VLC files.

For some reason...no. It has a DVD-RW drive. Good question that most people may overlook. It should either say "Blu-Ray (or BD) Burner" or "BD-RW (ReWritable)." If you're not looking to write to blu-ray, it should say "BD-ROM" or just "Blu-Ray drive."

yes! I play mkv files on mine from an external hard drive. Occasionally the mkv will not read well on the blu ray player, even though it plays on a computer, but this is rare. good luck! -Jay

There is no software. Its plug and play. You can use window OS to burn to and read your non-movie blu-rays. If you are talking about a Blu-Ray ripper software for movies, make sure it can remove/handle the security stuff otherwise it won't copy it and you could have playing problems if your monitor doesn't support security stuff.

Not sure since I did not use it for this reason. I imagine your BluRay player has to have the capability to support an internet connection (i.e. integrated software, interface, etc.)

yes you can...but if it is anything like mine you will have to find software for it to actually play bluray discs

I have not tried to copy anything from tv using this device. I have it connected to my pc and I can play regular dvds and blu-rays. It will copy blu-rays to my hard drive, but only as an image file which I can't get to play so far. For the moment I have given up on the device . . . short attention span I suppose . . .

It's highly unlikely that this will work on a Blu-Ray player. When you plug this in to a windows PC, the PC sees this as a thumb drive and allows you to load the windows drivers that are stored on the device. I also know that Fedora Linux 17 will load this device without needing any extra software.

I did not try .iso files, however it has had no problem playing .mov,avi,MP4,mkv or divx files. For the price the unit works really nice.

It doesn't appear to be able to with the software provided. You probably can get it to play if you purchase something like Arcsoft's total media player software, another $60 or so. I gave up after downloading few freeware programs and it still wouldn't play commerial Blu-ray discs & returned the player, as the item's decriptions never mentioned that problem beforehand.

If your dvd player ( most likely from 2008 and on) is a newer one it should be able to play those formats. If it is an older model you will have to encode (change it a readable format) your content. Blu-ray players should handle those extensions just fine without any encoding. This program I do not believe will do any type of encoding or file conversion. You will have to get another Nero program or some other program that will. So, burning your files, not a problem. If you dvd player accepts those extensions is another matter.

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.

Download a good codec pack like k-lite codec pack and then play blu rays through VLC

No you can't. This device only handles old style analog coaxial TV signals. Your Blu-ray players audio output is a digital coaxial output.

Yes I believe so The unit has a L/R rca jacks so if your blu-ray player has rca outputs it should be possible
