I have quite a few videos from my iPad days and now I'm trying to watch them on my Thinkpad Tablet 2. I can do this from the desktop using Windows Media Player but I get some lag. I have not found a Windows 8 App from the Windows store that will play them. Any suggestions?

I've noticed that quite often when using my digitizer stylus to swipe thru an open document or to scroll up or down a web page that instead of scrolling it just highlights everything as though I want to copy something. I don't have this issue when using my finger. Is there a setting I'm missing?
