Hi. I have a problem in screen capture mode on Windows 7.
If Video->Source->"Use OpenGL hardware acceleration" is checked, only the mouse pointer is captured, but the background is black.
If the checkbox is cleared, the mouse pointer isn't captured.
Anyone knows how to solve this problem, beside disabling Aero?

OpenGL screen capture mode is sadly not compatible with the Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) that was introduced starting with Windows Vista. In Windows Vista and Windows 7, you have to use GDI screen capture mode which is slower. This situation was rectified in Windows 8 which introduces a fast screen capture API, but unfortunately that won't help you on Windows 7.
