I understand the new Session Player should allow me to overlay the MPA gauge on top of Zwift, but for some reason I cannot get it transparent. The background is solid black. Tried both Embedded and Overlay layout, and tried different transparency settings, but still black.
If you have a large monitor you can overlay the Zwift app on top of the Session Player with Zwift covering the video block section. Or with dual monitors you can drag the boxes you want on top of Zwift with HUD disabled. No transparent overlays but it gets the job done.
Example: Redirecting...
The only way the Player could work the way you want is by using OSB.
