Windows Media Player shows videos in other media

I have a video which is an m4v but WMP is not showing it in my video library only in other media. Can someone help and suggest what I need to do to make it show there?

Also when I tried to copy one of my cd's (.cda) it wont show in library or lay from a local folder only from the cd drive
