    yes, i have had this problem (i like rendering charaecters from movies), I suggest Media Player Classic, then while your playing, you can pause it and click File-- Save Image.

    Only For Window Media Player

    Since many people dont really know how to take a screen shot on Window Media Player ..... many people do this . They play the video and click the botton that say "Print Screen" they go to paint and they paste it ... but watch it wont work cauz if u wanna move it or cut it , it will see the whole thing Black .... because the window media player stay the same position when u click Print Screen and paste on paint ... it will stay exact position .... but when u move it . it stay ...... so i found a solution how to take screen shot on WMP ( Window Media Player )

    Here are the step

    You go to TOOLS > OPTIONS > PERFORMANCE > then in the bottom panel entitled 'Video Acceleration' drag the indicator to the far left so it is under 'None' > APPLY . ( while u do this play the movie and the bar it move but u arent able to move the bar back and from... ok now Click Paint Screen Go to Paint , Click on the top of paint click Edit > Paste and u will see the screen .. use the square box u see on the left side of the tool that is next to the stars box click the quare ..... click ur mouse and move it ... and go to edit and cut and click file and then new and paste the picture u had cut with the square box Click on save as and

    And you are done !!!!

    But Remember !

    Remember to return the video acceleration back to full after taking ur shots so ur player will be back to its default settings ( Which mean the first step u did on performance and put it default which mean pull the bard to full )

    Tutorial By lllAE86lll i put the whole though there so u guys get it ;)

    Hope u understand this tutorial of how to take a screen shot ;) Hope Moderator pin this thread since it took me 15 minute to write this whole tut ;)

    Enjoy taking in picture with Window Media Player without having problem

    Also sorry for my poor English .... is terrible i know ;(

    Any problem u have post here i will try to help u out .... i am here to serve ;)

    also some WMP file can take screen shot by pressing CTRL + I .

    For all video media players , This is the basic step

    Right click on desktop->Properties->Settings Tab->Advanced Button->Troubleshoot tab and move the "Hardware Acceleration" slider all the way to the left.

    Remember to put it back at the right when
