Blu ray content protected and stopping..

[untouchablejen]

I just bought this computer a few months ago, it has a blu ray drive in it. I watched a blu ray movie in my computer a month after I got it and today I went to play a different blu ray movie and it starts, but about 20 seconds after it starts playing it tells me the content is protected and it can't play then it stops. Any ideas why its doing this?? Im just using DVDPlay program to play it in, which is the same program I watched the other blu ray movie in.

Did you ever get any resolution?

Try the usual remedies first.

Update all the drivers to the latest versions
Update the firmware on your drive
Update your software to the version.

If still have problems after that come and we will see what else we can suggest

From what I have read, and even here on these VAIOs, the OEM(supplied) player software - sucks!
Newer discs will sometimes play the trailers then either stall on the main movie or even shut the player down.
Other times, the disc isn't even recognized.

The best thing you can do is look into getting a Full Version of Power DVD 8 Ultra or ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre.

These two will most likely play any disc you throw at them(they have here).
