Request: add libbluray support

HI there
I think this maybe a Unraid problem, have everything setup great and almost working 100% except i cannot scan in blu ray rips in folder structure it ignores them completely apart from a message saying trying to load setting definitions from old format..., but iso and mkv scan in fine, i have found this post from 2010
"Yeah, Linux lacks that support currently. The libraries are being worked on, I bet it will work by the next stable release.
Your options basically are use Windows, or point to m2ts files instead (those scrape fine)."

so i am assume Unraid doesn't include those libs or not in the container?
more reading and I have found references to Kodi needing to be compiled with libbluray and included maybe libbdnav(might have become libbluray) to understand the bluray folder structure, am a windows guy mostly so not really sure on Linux requirements
i think i found the libs folder and doesn't look like it is there :(, is there any chance of an updated version to include it?
Yes, I can look at adding it :)
Hi Matt
i have done some more experimenting and i think it is a unraid problem or permission problem or I don't know lol as it can identify blurays and scan them in, but i have to go to the BDMV folder and initiate the scan by trying to bring up the info, during a library scan it checks for example Die hard but stops there it doesn't go down any more folder levels so finds no BDMV folder or index.BDMV, i have found a work around which is to exclude all the folders it shouldn't add during the scan and turn on recursive scanning, so wanted to save you time hopefully in adding things i don't believe it needs now and i just need to try some more things
ok, im actually not building with libbluray as I assumed it was just used for playback.
so let me know
have added libbluray support into the dockerfiles. Next release 19.5 (soon_ will have it included
