Thanks for the tip, Joel.  It has cured the problem with the one  computer, 
compared to a similar computer.
I suppose if I look up the overlay options in the computer which has a  
working printscreen, I'll find that
those options are turned off already. I doubt that I'd have ever found this  
info on my own.   -ph

It has  nothing to do with the site hosting the stream. It has to do with the 
fact  that media player will render to an overlay buffer instead of the 
primary  buffer. Its does this for perfomance reasons. If you change the 
settings  in media player to always render to the primary buffer then 
print-screen  will work as expected.
On media player 9 they are under  Tools->options->performance-Advanced.
Uncheck anything that says "use  overlays". Close and restart Media player.
