Thanks, that does the trick!
I was surprised it worked. I should have tried that myself but I
assumed it would fail just as all my previous attempts to use a
standard capture technique had failed in the past with video. Players
like PowerDVD and Nero ShowTime etc all produce an 'empty' result.
Must be something special about WMP 10. I can't be sure, but I don't
think WMP 9 could do that.
BTW, I sometimes find that after using (Alt+Enter) to get full screen,
the blue panels fail to disappear. Happily though, the capture doesn't
actually need to be full screen. Also, any capture utility works too.
And most allow capturing a specific window, so that avoids having to
crop as is the case with Print Scrn. I used Snagit.
