... I have discovered that all the newer players that state they can play HDR10+ have the newer ROM firmware & have no issues playing any commercial movie >70GB.
It depends on how many layers are used. It would be interesting if playback with all four layers used can be confirmed.Right but he's talking about home-made backups on blank BD-RE XL's.

Some told of playback with up to three layers. We only talk about " burnt" media as far as I see.
That could be possible. Users often wrote about the excellent behavior in playback for this model. I'm actually with the Sony 700 and I can confirm that this one has problems with BDXL media.They played fine on my UB900, but would probably have trouble on newer players.

I don't if this applies to the LG UBK80. I talked LG into giving me a refund. I may have even asked them if they had a firmware update? No support for BDXL 100GB discs though [or so they told me]I know most of you are referring to burnt discs but you all need to re-read that first link I posted.
It has been out since 2015 when the alliance put out the LEGALLY required standards for ALL UHD players on the planet (otherwise the companies can't get their licenses). There are NO EXCEPTIONS.
ALL UHD players MUST play & support up to BDXL 100GB. It is the standard & is clearly written there for you to read.
If your standalone does not play Blade Runner 2049, Inception or any other 100GB commercial UHD, then you need to return it for a legally required FREE fix since the manufacturer has broken their license agreements.
I've dealt with with this issue with my friends & they ALL have different UHD players & they ALL now play BDXL 100GB UHD movies since they all got free upgrades to fix their illegal standalones that failed to follow the UHD standards.
This all was written for support of burnt media I think.ALL UHD players MUST play & support up to BDXL 100GB. It is the standard & is clearly written there for you to read.
We know that these players handle retail media [obviously]. It is burnt media that is problematic. Someone here or elsewhere or both suggested that the Blu-ray Disc Association, http://www.blu-raydisc.com/en/index.aspx, never released information about authoring burnt media [UHD]?This all was written for support of burnt media I think.
Also you have to keep in mind that the layer size of burnt media is quite different to an official release I have to take a look at this because I actually can't give exact data for thid. I had this in conversation two or three years ago.

Can you "dumb" this down for me? How does this explain why there are [almost] no players that can handle these discs? [I'm assuming that these restrictions don't apply on PC playback?] It's a different layer size. Why can't standalone players just be designed to handle this?You got it
Look here at Page 14 + 28 : http://www.blu-raydisc.com/Assets/Downloadablefile/White_Paper_General_4th_20150817_clean.pdf
The diirence is the layer size. Single/ double layer media with 25 GB per layer and BD XL (BD-RE TL) 33,4 GB per layer. If you e.g. only need 63GB for your project, the third layer is not used. The problems only appear when you exceed the 66.8 GB mark. The size specifications do not correspond to the real values (25 GB = approx. 23.3 GB and 33.4 GB = approx. 31.1 GB writable space)
