Unfortunately, while surfing the Internet one can find many apps claiming to support Blu-ray with excellently written texts and in reality, only a few of them are able to do that.
That is why users need to download and install Mac Blu-ray software to be able to play discs of this format.
In fact, by default, Blu-ray discs cannot be played on macOS. It is a known fact that Apple and the Blu-ray format do not get well together, as Apple considers physical discs as archaic and the Blu-ray format is, unfortunately, tied to them. This is a common issue for encrypted and copy-protected discs, which include most Blu-ray DVDs.
The format mainly contains h.264 or h.265 encodings, making it easy to decode, but difficult to play. Blu-ray is one of two major high-definition discs (HD-DVD) formats that was introduced to consumers in 2006 to enhance the depth, color, and detail that viewers could see in images.
