    Media Direct 3.5 wont play newer BD discs. It doesn't seem like Dell is interested in having MD 3.5 updated. Media Direct is actually produced by Cyberlink.

    Media Direct 4.0 will play the newer BDs but it is not supported on the XPS line.

    You need to hunt around on here for the MD 4 iso. You also have to make sure that you are running a WHQL (signed) display driver. In the latest update to MD4, you will not be able to use virtual CD software at the same time you are running MD4, this includes AnyDVD. You can also pay for the Arcsoft and Cyberlink Blu-Ray software if you want to.
