In vista my wife can start a movie and it will play the next movie in alphabetical order. I do not see how to set that up in windows 7. It doesn't matter if it is in media player or media center to play it. Any ideas?

You open several movies and only one can be played...
Strange...

Using Media centre as the example - select a folder or a number of movie files and select play all - to add repeatability to this simply create a play-list of the files required and play the play-list

Select your movies by whatever means. The sort order can be whatever you choose. Right click the selection and choose "Add to WiMP play list."

That option is normally only available for filetypes the OS supports natively.

Current releases of the Win7codecs allow that option for 22 new filetypes such as MKV etc. enabled by installing my software. This isnt a default though, you have to go to the 'Help TAB' and select to associate filetypes to WMP yourself because many people take offense to filetype associations being thrust upon them.
