So I said, “Hey! Let me pop in Max Max: Fury Road!”

Two hours later, I’m ready to smash VLC Media Player into little pieces. I get video, audio stutters.  This isn’t a “fix this for me” post, by the way: this is a “I wish to strangle a manatee in the nude” post, to quote the classics. Arrgh.

  1. Cool. Apparently “I wish to strangle a manatee in the nude” has never existed on the internet before now!

    Which, I guess is not that surprising.

  2. Movie studios keep making their DVDs and Blue-ray Discs weirder and weirder to make them harder to copy onto hard disk. But that also makes it less likely that VLC or any other DVD/BD player software will cope. Have you upgraded to the latest VLC? Or you could rip the disc onto hard disk, watch it, then (of course) delete the files.

    1. I grabbed PotPlayer, which doesn’t have much in the way of bells and whistles but CAN play Blu-Rays clearly and crisply and without much in the way of fuss.
