What program may I use with this unit to see bluray?

I use VLC (icon looks like a traffic cone). It's pretty good, don't forget to get the one for bluray.

Yes, they all play regular dvd's, not just blurays. If you only have a 720p/10801 television, then the bluray player will output the pic at that level. You may have to adjust the settings, but it will still out output it at 720p/1080i

No I'm afraid the Bluray itself is READ only. But it can burn DVDs and CDs. At least with all the various video editing software I have on mine---none of them recognizes a blank Bluray as useable.

Its really stupid but there is no bluray playing software,its a rip off,the best I can recommend is buy cyberlink powerdvd 14 ultra,or torrent it if you do that sort of thing.Sounds illegal but guess what,you

Yes it will but in order to do that you need some additional stuff:- Windows 8.x doesn't playback either native DVDs and BluRay. You need a 3rd party software installed like PowerDVD.- Your monitor should support HDCP protocol that is a requirement from any monitor or TV to do Bluray playback.This BDROM works fine reading Bluray movies so if you meet the other hardware and software requirements you can playback your movies using this unit as I did.

It cannot play bluray movies without additional software such as PowerDVD - $50. It burns regular DVDs and CDs with free software such as ImgBurn.

I don't see any reason why not, assuming you have the proper drivers for the bluray.

My suggestion would be to buy a Sherwood BDP-5004 Blu-ray Disc Player (Black) which is a Momitsu 899 under the skin, and which, with a remote code, can be switched from BD A to BD B and to all regions of DVD, or any one region of DVD. Yes, the Brit BD player would be a problem because SD elements on a Region B BD are often SD PAL. Also some BDs are 1080i/50 Hz ("Super PAL") rather than the US 1080i/60 Hz. The Sherwood/Momitsu can be set for NTSC output through the HDMI cable and will play ANY European BD of any type. All for cheap. Buy two!

You need to have dvd or bluray player software mine works great. Burns blueray and dvds fine also as long as you specify the speed and not use autodetect

Sorry. I messed up. It works great with Windows 8.1. With the bluray software, not included

James, do you have an HDMI connection on your cable box and or other peripherals (DVD, bluray etc)? Optical is a good solution for component or analog video connections with digital audio (surround sound) decoders. If you have HDMI then your best possible video and audio solution is to go directly from your cable box and DVD/bluray with HDMI cables which would carry 1080p (high definition) video as well as 7.1 surround sound on a single cable. If this option is out of the question then you could go the lesser quality route of using optical connection into 2 inputs on the rear of the v375. This unit would replace your current surround processor. Any further questions feel free to reply! James, do you have an HDMI connection on your cable box and or other peripherals (DVD, bluray etc)?

I found a couple of options.... my easiest one is to use ChromeCast (Google Device for $35) but the only problem is that you have limited access as to what you can watch on the bluray player. I believe iPad makes a special connector too but don't quote me on that.

Is it possible to upload to Sony BDP-S560 codec software to allow it to read european blue-ray disks?

Yes, I have used DVD and Blu-ray ISOs. I also saw some stuttering using wireless but I connected a network cable to it and it not streams flawlessly. To stream Blu-ray you will have to either copy it locally to an attached hard drive or have a wired network connection.
