Hello.
I have a question about PC Blu-ray player/recorder and compatable software/s.
1. When does new 8x blu-ray player/recorder?
2. Which software should I use to play full blu-ray discs?

8x burner? Good question, but I'm betting it won't be cheap.

Oh, ok.
I have read this forum and people were going both Cyberlink and the one that you recommended me.
Wonder which one is best, lol.

ArcSoft will integrate into Media Center and work with the Media Center remote...

Here, ArcSoft seems to run with less load on the machine.
So far, it has played all Blu-ray Discs I have thrown at it.

Your PC's Operating System should install the drivers for the drive. Did a message come up when you first installed it?

Go to your Control Panel > Device Manager > DVD/CD-ROM Drives

Right Click your Pioneer Drive and select Update Driver Software... it will probably say you're using the most up-to-date software but it might update it and fix your problem.

It's possible the discs copy-protection is stopping the discs been recognised, try the AnyDVD-HD trial to see if that helps.
