Hi Sebin,

Can you try a very simple layout (for example only showing your RSS) and then build up from there? Once you find the point it stops working we will have a good idea what is causing the issue.

You mentioned that video doesn't display correctly - it seems like that would be a codec issue (i.e. windows media player does not have the codecs required to play that video).

Thanks,
Dan

Sorry, videos will always display at their aspect ratio at the moment.

Can you let us know which part of the weather widget does not work on the player? It might be that the widget uses HTML5, in which case there is a FAQ for enabling HTML5 on the windows player.

Hi Sebin,

Do you have "transparent background" ticked on the embedded media item?
