SUMMARY
When you capture a Screen Capture session, the area that is being captured behaves differently depending on the scenario. The &quot;More Information&quot; section of this article describes these behaviors. You can configure a Screen Capture session in the Session Properties dialog box.

Region Of Screen

The Encoder continues to capture what is occurring in that region of the screen, regardless of what windows are moved into, minimized, or closed within this region.

Window / Titled Window *

The window specified automatically restores itself.

The captured region moves with the window. The stream should not be able to determine that the window was moved.

The broadcast / archive appears black because the specified window does not exist anymore.


 * If resized larger, then the area is cropped on the right and bottom.
 * If resized smaller, then there is a black boarder filling up the remainder of the space. **

NOTES:

If another window overlaps the window that is being captured, the Encoder captures the window that is overlapping.

When a window is resized, the Encoder has no way to alter its frame size while encoding. This buffer is added to pad the space.
