I'm using the audio/video capture function to try to capture videos from WMP and Real Player. The audio is fine but the video is black. I've searched for troubleshooting info and all I find is info on DownloadStudio automatically turning off hardware acceleration. I'm assuming this is happening since the entire screen does go black for a second when starting and stopping the recording.

I've also tried following the recommendations for updating the options or preferences in both players so they don't use acceleration. This only made the recorder start and stop immediately without recording a thing.

By the way, I'm running XP and not Vista. Not sure what other info might be helpful. If anyone has suggestions, please let me know.
