Screen capture and mouse cursor tracking

Using Open Capture Device -> Capture mode = Desktop, Show more options, Edit options.

When capturing a part of screen together with mouse pointer tracking (parameters :screen-top=xxx :screen-left=xxx :screen-width=xxx :screen-height=xxx :screen-mouse-image=file:///D:/Pointer.png), VLC player fails and is collapsed when the mouse pointer goes below the specified screen area bottom.

Actually the mouse is displayed very distorted when capturing a part of screen, and its position does not correspond to actual mouse position on the part of screen.

I suppose this is due to wrong stride between scan lines usage when copying mouse pointer image to the captured desktop image.

If using only :screen-left=xxx :screen-width=xxx (without width and height), mouse pointer image is ok.
