i've heard people say it works, but to my knowledge, it's not supposed to. as the only thing that's "actually" on your screen is the black overlay, and the video is coming from the vid card. maybe it works for some formats and not others? there are programs that can take pictures of the direct x overlay though, like hypersnap dx, but it's not free.

It will now work

that's turning off direct x and making the video play through software, correct?
