#100010 is a strange color, whenever you have a video playing in Windows Media Player, this color will become transparent no matter what program you are in, and let you see through to the video.

I tried this trick with MS paint and Photoshop and it works.

Open up paint. Click colors > edit colors > define custom colors. Then type these color values and click OK.

Now play a video in Windows Media Player and have it take up a large portion of the screen. Switch back into paint without minimizing WMP. Now take any tool in paint and start drawing. You will see your video playing whereever you drew.
