I recently bought a collector edition boxed set of a 1970s martial arts series I love. I can't even play it in VLC, makemkv beta code situation is borked, and handbrake scans all the titles, then says there are none.

I have a local Plex server I wanted to use, no other devices that can play Blu-ray other than an external USB drive I just bought.

Any advice? The Linux box is on 22.04.

Did not try but the library tyeg are mentioned ia in Debian and Ubuntu repos so you only need to download there the keysdb.

Installing libblueray2 library would also install libaacs0 library for this in Debian.

If it does not work: either the KEYSDB is outdated or the encryption of your blue ray is BD+ (libbdplus), which requires other library and other set of keys.

I'm unsure how the keysdb works. I'm on Ubuntu, so Debian based. Sorry for the noob questions.

Is described in the website I linked.

Install libaacs with vlc in Ubuntu (search on synaptic) then follow the website.
