libbdplus and libaacs are available in the rpmfusion-free repo
Other than that, I know nothing about blueray.
I've installed these libraries but that is still not sufficient to get
vlc to play the blurays, I get the same issue I did under windows where
I had to manually install a config file that libaacs needs, which is not
installed in linux. Under windows installation of the config file lead
to vlc tripping up on keys required to read the bluray.
