Richard,
 
What player did you use on Windows XP?

One last note -- I could not view the video in any browser (plugins failed), nor in any application on my Windows
machine (Nero, Realplayer, WinDVD, WMP). I had to view it in my Linux video player.
I could view it on my Windows XP box. Great idea doing a "movie" - well done. The soundtrack was not working on my machine though :)

Greetings,

Thanks for the reply, but the problem is more complex than this. Yesudeep's two replies
can be combined and summarized as follows:
1. Try installing using the installers from http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net
2. Make sure that the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH is properly set by editing the
    bash configuration files and/or system environment variables.
3. Use the installation instructions from http://www.mingw.org/MinGWiki/index.php/GladeGuide
    ( written by Chris Lale, on how to use Glade with Win32)

I seem to agree with the old Chinese proverb: "A picture is worth a thousand words".
I'd like to add a little more to it though: "A movie is worth a million."
Here's a screen-cast demonstrating installing GTK+ on Windows:

Note:  I do not have Cygwin installed on my machine, and when I did
I avoided adding Cygwin paths/executables to my PATH environment variable. 
That dramatically reduced the problems I was facing.  The UNIX tools you see
me using are from the GNUWin32 project.

If installing this way does not solve your problem, do let us know.

Regards,
Yesudeep.
