[ubuntu-uk] Playing DVD through projector

Hi,
Ubuntu 11.10 fully updated.
I need to play a DVD through a projector as part of a course. I followed 
the procedure here 
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs which 
made the DVD play fine in VLC.
However as soon as I went to full screen through the projector, the DVD 
played fine but there was a flashing "rippling" image of the launcher on 
the L/H side of the screen showing up on the projected image, even 
though nothing showed on the computer screen
Anyone seen this, and is there a cure?
(I had been using Windows Media Player on Win 7 which kept misbehaving 
and I thought that this might be a chance for Ubuntu to shine!)
I've had to install VLC on Windows 7 to get it playing without 
hiccoughs.... :-(
