Windows-Phone-8

In my windows phone app I am including Microsoft Media Player Framework (MMPPF) to include MediaPlayer and WebVTT functionality. I am referencing the DLL's and winmd files that were built from the MMPPF universal project as appose to referencing the installed MMPPF extension in Visual Studio. On x86 and ARM(non phone) devices this worked just fine but on ARM phone, no. According to the MDILXapCompileLog the offending file is Microsoft.Media.WebVTT.winmd. Attached is the MDILXapCompileLog. Bellow is the directory tree of what is included. That bracketed by * are what is referenced in the app. The rest is what is dragged in with it.
