Short Answer: A reasonably modern PC with a Libredrive-enabled 4K UHD reader, AnyDVD HD ( DEFINITELY NOT FREE, but the lifetime license is absolutely worth every penny of it if you are ripping a large media collection from disk), MakeMKV (free), PowerDVD (paid) OR MediaPlayer Classic (free) with the MadVR plugin (free) AND having HDR enabled in Windows on your HDR-capable display. So I'm kind of leaning towards a Panasonic player, but they seem so spendy for something single purpose? Anyway, I value your opinions, so thanks in advance.

I've got a Tivo Stream 4k and I don't know that I like Android TV. I currently run MythTV on a server and two chromebox-ish htpcs, but I'd bet they don't have enough horsepower to decode UHD content, and MythTV isn't my dream interface either. I've generally been happy with the Rokus, but playing local content isn't great, and I understand some UHD discs peak at more than 100mbps, which means the ethernet can't keep up I'd rather not transcode. I think the options are dedicated UHD Blu-Ray player (Panasonic UB820 seems highly recommended and UB420 seems almost as recommended if you don't need Dolby Digital) a computer with SGX etc to run official players, a libredrive capable drive (which I have) and VLC - but I'm not sure what other specs are needed?, disc based ps5 / xbox series x, some sort of tv box but probably not a Roku? Money isn't really a problem, but I do lean miserly (of course, my checkbook wouldn't know that given the theater room construction).

With the TV so far, I've only done regular blu-ray and Roku streaming and haven't noticed anything missing (but maybe I'm blind), otoh, the screen is going to be a lot bigger, so maybe it's time to upgrade to 4k discs? What do you all use to watch UHD discs?

Now that we’ve seen the big picture of playing, burning, and ripping discs, let’s start talking details.I've got a Samsung 4k tv that does HDR10+ and I'll be getting a Samsung projector that does too. You may need to compress and convert your ripped movies with Handbrake. But huge files take up a lot of space, and MKV files don’t work with some devices (like Apple TV).

Compressing and Converting: Some people like to rip their movies as giant lossless files.

We suggest using MakeMKV, as it’s free and works great with 4K UHD Blu-rays.

Ripping Software: You need specialized software to rip movies from discs.

(You may need to convert your files to the MPEG format before burning them to a disc). But Windows and Linux users will need to stick with ImgBurn.

Burning Software: Mac users can burn DVDs or Blu-rays directly from the Finder.

We suggest using VLC, as it works with everything and has a great support community. Windows Media Player, for example, doesn’t work with Blu-ray discs. Media Playback Software: Most media players are terrible at their job.The ASUS 16X is a great option, and it’s sold as an internal or external drive. Even if you have a Blu-ray drive, you may need to upgrade to start playing and ripping discs of this ilk.

About 4K UHD: Some older Blu-ray drives refuse to work with 4K UHD discs.

The fastest speed you’ll see in a DVD drive is 24X, and the fastest speed you’ll see in a Blu-ray drive is 16X. These speeds are usually expressed in terms like 8X or 16X, where 16X is twice the speed of 8X.

Write Speed: A disc drive’s write speed determines how quickly it can burn files to a disc.

Drive Type: A Blu-ray drive can play DVDs, but a DVD drive can’t play Blu-ray discs.

But even if you already own a Blu-ray or DVD drive, you might need to buy a new one to play, burn, or rip discs.

A Disc Player: You’ll need a RW drive (rewritable drive) to play, burn, and rip discs.
