    View external Blu Ray player on Computer


    I recently bought a Blu Ray Player for my HDTV. It uses HDMI. I also have an HDMI connection from my computer to the TV. Is it possible for me to view the external player on my computer? I tried connecting the 2 HDMI ports, computer and BD but the BD does not show up on the computer.

    The player is also connected to the wireless network. It shows me all the sites I can visit so I know that parts working. I can see my wife's computer but not the player. Any ideas?

    I ended up buying a Pioneer 208DBK for the desktop. Problem solved.

I just recently started having a problem with my windows media player constantly opening up in library mode, when it used to open up in now playing mode. I remember a thread awhile back with same problem but cant remember if it was solved and if so how.
When Media Player is in "Library" view, more specifically, when the view is set to "Icon", it displays as an icon the album art of an album, with the "Album Name" and "Album Artist" underneath as titles: 86537 Media Player Library View The icon is at a default size of 96x96 pixels. ...
