can i play blu-ray on ps3

Post by deadone »

hi all, as i dont have a blu ray reader/burner on my pc is it possible to be able to play/stream a blu ray movie with full file structure using something like ps3 media server.

i have tried to play them using ps3 media server, it finds my pc and all the files i have on it but it will not allow me to play a bluray movie.
everything else seems to play fine, avi/mpg and even images and mp3 etc.
