Question PPT Border (not background) while shooting video is black; want white

The title says it.
My PowerPoint 2007, while filming videos in Camtasia, shows a black border around the (predominately white) slides. I want to change the border to white.
I can find the slide background color easily, but not the slide border, or whatever it is called.

Can you post a screenshot so I can see the border you are talking about?

Default PPT Border

JPG was too big, but I put the screenshot in a Word doc and it fit.

The white slide in the center is what I see when I view the slide show in PowerPoint, so I get full screen white slide.

When I film in PowerPoint, using the Camtasia add-on for PowerPoint, which creates am .MP4 file, and then view the video in Windows Media Player (or any other player), I get what you see in the screen shot.

The video goes full screen, but the black border that you see in the screenshot is in the playback.

I'm trying to get the entire black border that you see to be white.

Ok from what I can see I'm guessing that the screen resolution that the add-in is using whilst recording is probably different to the screen resolution of your computer and because of that the add-in has put the black border around it to fill the extra space. There would not be an option, unless specifically part of the add-in you use to change the colour of this black border.

Never thought to look in the settings for the add-on. Thanks. I'll go look.

Otherwise see if you can change the screen resolution the add-in records with to the same as your computer is using and then you should eliminate the border all together.
