So you can test it:
VLC 1.1.4: Tools->Preferences->Video->Output, select DirectX(DirectDraw) and make sure Accelerated video output is on
KMPlayer: Options->Preferences->Video Processing->Renderer, select Overlay mixer
and under General->Screen you can choose Color Key a.k.a color for ingame panel.
Edit: Oh, and Aero will be turned off while you watch like this since its not compatible.
