    Description

      MediaPortal cannot play Blu-ray discs that are encrypted without the use of 3rd party on-the-fly decrypters. When a users starts such a disc when no external tool is installed and running, a message "Abspielen nicht möglich: index"/"Playback not possible: index" is shown.

      This is a confusing error since it suggests an error where there is nothing wrong with MediaPortal (just a limitation).

      A better message would be something like "Cannot play protected Blu-ray without 3rd party tools, see wiki for more information"

      h4. Steps to Reproduce
      Disable all on-the-fly decrypters
      Insert protected Blu-ray
      Go to Videos
      Press enter on the Blu-ray drive
