Using winMP, PrintScreen doesn't work, it just captures the 'frame' (if you
like), of the actual program leaving the work area black.
Anyone know?

Dunno on Windows, on Linux I use mplayer and can change the output to xv
or x11 to grab screencaps, or tell it to output to png/jpg (I forget
which). If there's a version for Windows (and I believe there is), you
might try that.

Oh, wow, thanks Gilles. I had a good look originally, but it wasn't at
all obvious that it was the advanced button. In fact, I missed that
completely. Thanks, works a treat.

Note that performance will suffer when you do that, so be sure to turn
it back on afterwards.

Well, yeah, possibly, but it still isn't obvious what 'Use Overlays'
means.
(Unless you read a manpage of course).

On Windows your can do this with the KMPlayer
(not identical with the LINUX kmplayer)

Ah, ok, thanks Warp, I'll do that. That's something else that isn't
entirely obvious.

It means basically that the video data isn't rendered into the main
framebuffer, it's "overlaid" onto the image by the video hardware. Thus,
when you hit the printscreen button and the framebuffer gets copied...
no image!
Doing it this way given better performance - hence Warp's suggestion to
turn it back on after. ;-)
