It appears that all the DVDx, which is what you get to on SourceForge.net, is a 
joint project of labdv, bsg, and dvdx_dev groups.

When I clicked link for the VLC 2.X with AACS link it opens this page, Play 
encrypted Blu-ray with VLC 2.x, on which there are two links for downloading 
items:vlc-bluray-2.1.5-win64_nobdplus.zip for VLC 2.x 
64-bitaacs-updater-1.1-win32-setup.exe

and you are instructed to download the first, unzip it (of course), and once 
you do you'll find a file named spad-setup, which I'd presume is the setup.  
There is a slightly older version of the VLC player than is current bundled but 
you could install over that.  It is the 64-bit version.  The libaacs.dll is 
included in that install folder as well.  The statement on that page is that 
there is not a functioning version of this for 32-bit (at least not from them) 
and this seems to be tied up with playing of Blu-ray only, not other media 
types including DVD.

Then you are instructed to download the second and run it.  They also suggest 
you create a shortcut to it so that you can run the updater every once in a 
while in case there have been updates, though I doubt that's necessary really.  
I haven't done any more digging into libbdplus and won't unless someone 
indicates it must be installed to view the Blu-ray discs available in the USA.

I'm at a disadvantage here because I have no Blu-ray discs and none of the 
computers in my house, including this one, has a Blu-ray compatible player in 
it.
