Vista Tutorial - Microsoft with Blue ray support?

**Xephion** · 08-20-2008

I've been looking online for any article related to blue ray support for media center. So far I havnt found much. I found an article that microsoft is comming out with blue ray support but they dont specify if they will enable play back in Media Center or Media Player. It only sais they will enable windows to burn blueray disc. Microsoft is a soor loser, they still dont want to admit that Blue ray is supperior to HD-dvd like it stats in the article.

By the looks of it, it dont look too good for blue ray support in Media Center any time soon. If any one has more information on the topic feel free to add your info.

Statements like that are never going to get a nice response. How about asking your question without posting inflammatory remarks?

As to BD vs HD-DVD, the reading I have done shows that WiMP and WMC support neither. I currently have to use PowerDVD to watch BDs.
