Play Blu-ray with Blu-ray Player or Mobile Phone on HDTV via DLNA or HDMI
Blu-ray technology has become more and more powerful. So there come a growing number of Blu-ray products in the market, like Blu-ray Disc, Blu-ray Player, etc. Have you got some Blu-ray disc movies at home? Have you ever enjoy those Blu-ray movies on your HDTV with Home Theatre to get the best benefits? Have you met some problems? Do not worry, this article is just written for you, who want to try different ways to enjoy the Blu-ray movie. Here we go!
Method One: Play Blu-ray movie with Blu-ray Player on HDTV via HDMI.
This is the easiest way to play your Blu-ray Movie on HDTV with Blu-ray Player. You just need to connect the devices. Here is the step instruction:
Step 1: Connect your Blu-ray Player with HDTV and Home Theatre.
Step 2: Turn on the Blu-ray Player, HDTV and Home Theatre.
Step 3: Place the Blu-ray disc in Blu-ray Player.
Then you can use the controller to play it.
PS:
To connect Blu-ray Player with HD TV and Home Theatre, you need HDMI for help. There are two ways to connect them. The first one is to connect your Blu-ray Player to Home Theatre with one HDMI cable first and then use a second cable from the Home Theatre to the HDTV. The second way is to use HDMI output from Blu-ray player to TV for video and optical digital cable output from Blu-ray player to Home Theater input for surround sound.
Here the first way is highly recommended. Because if you have more than one video source (e.g. Blu-ray and HD cable or satellite), you have to select video source at the TV and audio at the Home Theatre.
Method Two: Watch Blu-ray movie with Blu-ray Player on HDTV via DLNA.
If your Blu-ray Player are of DLNA-capable. You can try this method.
This way will help you protect your Blu-ray disc away from physical damage. So you need to backup Blu-ray movie to PC. However, not all formats are supported by DLNA.
To solve this problem you can directly rip and convert Blu-ray to DLNA supported formats. Foxreal Blu-ray Ripper can do you such a nice favor. Then you can watch Blu-ray movie on PC with HDTV via DLNA. Here I will show you how to realize it by a step-by-step guide.

Step 2: Ensure that your computer has installed DLNA server like Windows Media Player 11 or PS3 Media Server or something like that. (Windows 7 has built-in DLNA server support and doesn’t require additional software.)
Step 3: DLNA setup on PC.

If your OS is Windows 7, you can directly click start and type “Media Streaming” in the search box, then click Media Streaming Option (generally the first option) to turn on Media Streaming.
Step 4: Blu-ray Player Setup.

Some people like to stream Blu-ray movies to mobile phone so that they can take them anywhere and enjoy anytime. If your phone supports DLNA then you can try this way to enjoy Blu-ray movie on HDTV.
Here I will choose Droid X as an example show you how to play Blu-ray movie with Droid X on HDTV via DLNA/HDMI.
Part I: Stream Blu-ray movies to Droid X.
As we know, any mobile phone cannot support all video formats. So does Droid X. Droid X only supports formats like MPEG-4, MP4, H.264, WMV, DIVX or XVID. Generally H.264 (*.mp4) is the best format for Droid X. Then the best way is to rip and convert Blu-ray movies to H.264 (*.mp4) for Droid X. Foxreal Blu-ray Converter will be your good choice.
Step 1: Rip and convert Blu-ray movies for Droid X.
Format Video H.264 (*.mp4) at 1500 bitrate and 23.97 frame rate with 854*480 resolution is recommend here, with which you can enjoy Blu-ray movie on your Droid X with full screen to get the best visual effect.
Step 2: Transfer Blu-ray movies to Droid X with USB connection.
Part II: Stream Blu-ray moives to HDTV via DLNA.
Step 1: Ensure that your home network or WiFi network is running.
Step 2: Turn on the DLNA-capable HDTV and make it connect to the WiFi network.
Step 3: Select the DLNA application on Droid X. (If you get a pop-up message notifying you to turn on WiFi connection, click Yes to turn on WiFi.).
Step 4: Choose Share media on DLNA screen and then select video as the media file you want to share. Click OK.
Then wait for a minute until a green DLNA logo appears in the status bar showing the DLNA connection succesffully.
