==Hardware requirements== The requirements to play a UHD Blu-Ray on a PC are: #A UHD-compatible optical drive certified by '''[[wikipedia:AACS_LA|AACS LA]].''' #'''An Intel CPU with support for Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX):''' SGX is a protocol that creates a secure environment to prevent users from tampering with imposed restrictions. This feature was available in Intel CPUs produced between 2015 and 2022 but was discontinued due to security concerns (list of vulnerabilities is available [[wikipedia:Software_Guard_Extensions#List_of_SGX_vulnerabilities|here]]). #'''Intel Management Engine (ME)'''<ref>[https://www.fsf.org/blogs/sysadmin/the-management-engine-an-attack-on-computer-users-freedom "The Intel Management Engine: an attack on computer users' freedom"] - fsf.org - accessed 2025-01-30</ref>''':''' If the ME version is outdated, the disc will not play. #'''An Integrated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU):''' The GPU shares the SGX enclave with the CPU, reducing the likelihood of users accessing or copying audio/video data. #'''HDCP 2.2 support:''' The integrated GPU, monitor, and HDMI/DisplayPort cable must all support [[wikipedia:High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection|'''High-bandwith Digital Content Protection''']] (HDCP) version 2.2. This protection system authenticates devices and encrypts the stream between them, making it extremely difficult to access audio/video data.
