Easiest way to capture screenshots from vids playing in WMP

irwin · 01-02-2005, 01:43 PM

ctrl+i while vid is playing. A dialog box will pop up asking for your desired save location.

Didn't work on a DVD in WMP 10 for me, but other source did work. Cool!

FRAPS is an outside program that will capture video clips (30 seconds worth) and screenshots as well as measure frames per second for video games.

the video clip capture and screenshots work with any program or video playback

I like Printkey 2000, there is a freeware version, you can find it here http://www.freewareweb.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?ID=292 Very simple program. The free version doesn't capture video but it is totally free.

For DVDs you need a program that can decode the encryption for your screenshots.

Passwird, does that trick in version 9?
