Nvidia Play On My TV no longer working...

I like to think I'm fairly au fait with computer tweaking and such, but this one's got me stumped.

I recently installed the K-Lite Codec Pack to get the codecs to enable me to play MP4 files. However, this seems to have had the unwanted effect of screwing up the "Play on My TV" context menu in explorer for certain types of files.

MPGs seem to be fine, as are WMVs and some AVIs. But on other AVI files, it gets rather screwy. For example, if I right click on a file called "Gone With the Wind.avi" and select Play on My TV, WMP 9 will open, displaying a list of four files "Gone", "With", "the" and "Wind.avi". None of these will play. It seems to be doing something with the spaces in the file names.

What's gone wrong, and how do I correct it? Before I uninstall the K-Lite codecs .

I should also add that the AVI files in question load perfectly normally when I doubleclick them.

See that everyone's still pretty much stumped on this, as am I. So I'm attempting to provide more information. If I were to rename the file "GoneWiththeWind.avi" i.e. with no spaces, the file plays as normal when I right click and select "Play On My TV".

Any ideas?
