Popcorn Hour A-210 does not naturally support Blu-ray Disc playback due to licensing. You have to first hack/rip Blu-ray contents off if you’d like to stream Blu-ray contents to A-210 box. There are multiple ways to rip Blu-ray movies for Popcorn A-210:
1.Back up Blu-ray movie to BD ISO file with no loss of movie quality and interactive menu.
2.Copy Blu-ray Disc to BDMV structure or .m2ts streams without changing the original contents.
3.Rip Blu-ray main movie to MKV file with desired audio, video and subtitle streams with lossless or compressive quality.
4.Shrink Blu-ray contents to 1080p/720p MP4, AVI, MKV at a smaller file size.
Popcorn Hour A210 play Blu-ray in all the above mentioned file type. Which is the best way for playing Blu-ray movies with A-210? Definitely the 3rd way. The A-210 will not allow you to forward movie or select a chapter to start with when playing BD ISO, BDMV or m2ts clips becuase it doesn’t support Blu-ray menus. When you compress Blu-ray to 720p video, you’ll lose TrueHD quality and keep at most 2 audio tracks. But with MKV you can have all you want in one file and play it without a problem.
