by saying that it makes it sound like you are pressing ctrl and print screen

Printscreen won't ever work

it isn't possible to do it is the short answer

the long answer can be found on a google search

^ lol. I hope you didn't try that. Yeah it should just be the print screen key. No Ctrl.

If you're using windows media player, you need some sort of plugin if I remember correctly to save a screenshot like that (not sure though). It's been mentioned before so try a search, otherwise someone will come along and link you to the plugin.

You could also just play it in a different media player and try to get a screen capture.

this was a while back so i probly did just press print screen, but where i wanted the picture frame from the movie it had a blank screen

8/5/2005 4:17:20 PM

okay, so i probly need a plug-in

8/5/2005 4:19:16 PM

if you use a program to view the movie clips or DVDs (such as PowerDVD), they have built-in frame capture options that output to .BMP or .JPG or something similar
