Though perhaps not as "elegant" as some of the other solutions, WMCapture (I'm testing with the demo version at present) just seems to work everywhere and every time. If I can see the video on my screen, I can capture it.

Now for the audio portion... My new Lenovo T61 notebook has a Soundmax HD integrated audio card. When bringing up the sound mixer, the only input I see is for the microphone. Therefore, I see no way to get clean audio into WMCapture so as to record it. Yeah, I can play the clip, put my microphone close to the speaker, (and be real quiet while it's recording) and that works... but talk about funky!! Anyone know of another solution??

I'll buy the full version of WMCapture if you can make this work well!!
