1 `libbluray` is an **open-source** library designed for Blu-Ray Discs playback
2 for media players, like [VLC](http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) or MPlayer.
4 This **research** project is developed by an international team of developers
5 from [Doom9](http://www.doom9.org/).
7 Features
9 * Portability: Currently supported platforms are GNU/Linux, Windows, MacOS X.
10 Dependencies are very limited.
11 * Freedom: `libbluray` is released under a Free Software license, LGPL,
12 ensuring it will stay free.
13 * Features: the library integrates navigation, playlist parsing, menus and
14 BD-J.
15 * Legal: libbluray is DRM-circumvention free, and thus, safe to integrate in
16 your software.
17 * Fun: libbluray is a fun to hack on project, in its starting phase.
19 **NB:** Most commercial Blu-Ray are protected by [AACS](http://www.aacsla.com/)
20 or [BD+](http://www.bdplusllc.com/) technologies and this library is not enough
21 to playback those discs.
23 People interested in AACS technologies should have a look at
24 [libaacs](http://www.videolan.org/developers/libaacs.html).
26 People interested in BD+ technologies should have a look at
27 [libbdplus](http://www.videolan.org/developers/libbdplus.html).
