I have the same problem here are some more details so hopefully it will help you out.
Hypercam version 2.25.01 - I have only recently downloaded it and have also checked for updates etc
I am running Windows 7 64 bit. What you are seeing in the post by Beach40 is what I see when ever I use Hypercam.
I will choose the entire screensize for the recording of the video 1908 x 1080
All other settings are left as default.
I will then press record and hypercam will minimise to the task bar. At the end of the recording I will maximise hypercam and hit stop followed by play.
I have run a number of "test" type videos opening up a menu or program etc.
The audio works fine - and my voice is played back clearly.
The video however is a small square in the middle of the player - I have tried multiple players in case it was a probleem at that end.
In 90% of videos all I am getting is a static image - if I use the start menu then that will be displayed in the shot - but no movement - just the one static image - even though my voice can clearly be heard as I describe opening up control panel for example.
I am just wondering if it was a change in the program as I last used this program around 12 months ago - and earlier version obviously and apart from a problem with sound lagging on occassions have found it a very stable and useful program
Is there any other details you require?
I am using a DELL laptop with built in audio and video 6GM of Ram and about 150GB of spare HDD space
