I've been through the video twice now and checked my code and I can't find the mistake...but my page looks nothing like the example given, I can't play the video and I have a weird list of times under the video?
Please help I don't know why this has happened and I don't want to move on until I understand it!

Treehouse TeacherHi! It looks like there's a problem with the files you're linking to in the header. Specifically this one:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="mejs/mediaelementplayer.min.js" />
The above line says it's a stylesheet but points to a javascript file.
I believe it's supposed to be this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="mejs/mediaelementplayer.min.css" />
Hope this fixes things!
