Cannot play Synecdoche, New York Blu-Ray

[throck3]

I'm having a problem playing the image file of Synecdoche, New York on Blu-Ray. The movie plays fine with the actual disc in the drive.

This is from the AnyDVD HD status screen:
Summary for drive G: (AnyDVD 6.5.3.2)
HL-DT-ST BDDVDRW GGC-H20L 1.03 43091808258BLE0905
Drive (Hardware) Region: 0 (not set!)

Media is a Blu-Ray disc.

Total size: 19964416 sectors (38993 MBytes)
Video Blu-ray label: SYNECDOCHE_NEW_YORK
Media is AACS protected!
Removed AACS copy protection!
Can't determine region code!
Blu-ray Java signatures fixed!
BD-Live deactivated!
Removed UOPs!

After I copy the image file to the hard drive, I use Virtual CloneDrive to mount the image. Interestingly, the name (SYNECDOCHE_NEW_YORK) does not appear on the virtual drive from the My Computer view.

Nonetheless, when I play the virtual disc from that drive with PowerDVD 9, it loads the Blu-ray disc and starts up with the movie's loading graphic.

PowerDVD 9 also pops up with a warning:
"This Blu-Ray Disc's digital signature is not recognized or invalid, therefore the BD-J content may be unsafe. Do you want to continue the connection to the BD-Live site? Click 'Yes' to continue the connection. Click 'No' to continue the playback without internet access."

Regardless of wheter I press yes or no, the Blu-Ray loading screen appears, it slowly loads, and then it moves on to the next screen, but there is no audio or video; it's just black. The timecode is running though. I've tried skipping ahead to the next chapters but they are all just black.

I've attached the log file.

Suggestions?
