Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!

You're missing the point: the browser would not have a specific app in it. As I said, I figured since APOD itself doesn't have a link for the "daily feed", this would be a good place to find one. It is "Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!"

Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!

I get the point that there is no such thing as a video wallpaper. However, I do see that the APOD daily feed does have videos, so it would legit to ask if there isn't a downloadable app that would support said videos. I'm not suggesting that APOD is responsible for this, but I figured that this woul...

Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!

OK. When there was a link on the APOD website itself for the app/program/whatever to load the new image/whatever each day from the APOD website, I got the impression that at least some people got the videos. (And yes, occasionally there are APOD videos for the daily "wallpaper".) At the ti...

Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!

OK, but I get the impression that many people are able to get the APOD videos when there is one. Is there a link with a program that would support APOD videos?

Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!

I recently bought a faster/better computer, and my OS is Windows 8.1. But like it was when I had a slower computer system, the APOD Wallpaper will not update when there is some kind of video involved - the message in the status line is "this type of image is not supported". ?? I could see ...

Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!

Thanks! It worked, but I don't see the explanation in the upper RH corner like before.
Didn't there used to be a download link on the APOD site itself ?

Re: Bugs? Problems? Report them here!

I deleted the APOD "program" thats loads the current APOD picture (long story), but i don't see a link to "reload" the APOD program... Where would I find it? I don't see it on the APOD or NASA website.

default substitute pictures

I'm hoping this is the place to get an answer. Today, like other days where there is a video clip or the like, APOD puts up a photo (often of cute animals, tho once it was an "old" pic of a train that had run through a wall of the second story of a Paris train depot) instead of the video c...
