The cursor cannot be directly captured along with the screen, mainly due to all sorts of nifty hardware-side optimizations. This is also the reason why some apps that use hardware overlay surfaces (such as video players) cannot be captured (this may not be true for all video cards, however). Some screen capture programs fake capturing the cursor by compositing an arrow cursor at the cursor location after the root window is grabbed. I suppose a smart capture program could look up what the current cursor scheme is, shadow options, etc., then use that for compositing. - Mike

I have a video player appl. It runs in full screen mode on some machines but not on others.Is this a video card problem? I know my doubt is a bit offtrack from the original question raised.But i would be glad if u could throw some more light on this. Thanx, :)
