Blu-Ray Digital Copy WMV Playback

Anyone taken the time yet to transfer a digital copy file from those dvds that come with blu-ray onto the TP and get smooth playback?

Heres the problems I have..

1.) The Digital Copies given with blu-ray are DRM WMV files. Not a big deal I have the license key it came with the movie

2.) The 2 verisons they supply on the disc are a PC encoded version for looking good on PC and then a scaled down version for mobile devices - the PC version looks great - the mobile version even on a mobile looks like garbage - huge blocky artifacts and unsmooth playback.

3.) If it put the 1.4gb PC version on the device the video and audio quality are great - playback is horrible.
.
Im not really looking to put in extra time to rip the dvd myself - though I COULD.. I figured it would just be a nice to use these neat little extras they give you..

Every video player I have put these files in either are unplayable completely.. or no picture - but audio.. or is very unsmooth / frame skipping / lagged playback.

I have tried: Kinoma, TCPMP, CORE, WMP 10.. any one have suggestions for another piece of software to try video playback with?

I have taken the time to now strip the DRM so that I can work with the files a little more.. going to try them in a few other devices to see how the playback looks..
