Bluray player that can also read digital video from a hard drive? (lemmy.world)

Are there any good [the thing i said in the post title]?

My laptop is too new to have a disc drive and the external one i have refuses to work half the time for DVD and doesn't support bluray at all. My "smart" TV is either too smart or too dumb to play a good portion of the movies i have digitally on a hard drive. Is there a device that can just do both and plug into the TV over HDMI?

We used a PS3, and now a PS5, for such a use. It's a great Blu-Ray player. There are also apps for most streaming platforms. It supports both Plex and Jellyfin.

A raspberry PI setup, running VLC with a computer/NAS DLNA serve, might be interesting to try too.
