Ha...that is just the way that video acts...(not sure if it's codecs or what), but if you do that with any video playing, it'll look like it's playing in your image editor, but it's not.

It's kinda the same reason why you can't print-screen a video while it's playing to get a 'screenshot' of a video.

I have no idea why this stuff does it, but it does :(.

it's an old style security feature to disallow content copying.

If you set your hardware acceleration on your graphics card to something less than high you will be able to take screen shots of the movie, this helps when its your own movie and you need an image from it quickly.
