Windows 7: WMC no longer properly playing movies from library

WMC no longer properly playing movies from library

So I've copied a few of my Blu-Rays to my computer for ease of viewing, and when I originally did that, the movies would play fine when I opened WMC and clicked "Movie Library", then clicked the movie I wanted to play.

Now, for some reason, when I hit "Play Now" it goes to a screen that basically is looking for a disc in the BD-DVD player. On this screen I have the options to Resume, Restart, Chapter Viewer, Eject, Settings, and something else. This screen is still in WMC, but it has the PowerDVD wording across the top. (I use PowerDVD 9 Ultra for my Blu-ray viewing).

I don't recall doing anything from between the time the video library worked and now, besides rebooting a couple times perhaps or listening to music. To watch these movies I have to open up WMP and open the appropriate AVCHD file, an annoyance to say the least.



Any ideas whats up? If you need anymore information let me know.

Um, nah I don't imagine that is it. Like I said it worked fine for a few days, and anytime one usually runs afoul of digital content protection whatever program I'm using is "nice" enough to let me know.
