    WMP is iffy for screenshots

    i reccomend zoomplayer for watching movies and etc.

    simpilar to take screenshots with just the ALT + F [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

    yeh, i know, just in zoomplayer, for WMP try this

    Printscreen is the only way i know to get a SS in WMP

    what i ment with the alt + F is for zoomplayer, which is less clunky then WMP

    PowerDVD seems to work OK for screenshots - just open the .avi as a media file and then 'C' to capture the screenshot you want

    And yep - MS Media Player on XP doesn't let you grab screenshots, I tried for a while too with no success

    You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.

    hmm, i reccomend going over to zoomplayer tough

    its less bulky then WMP, and you'll generally have a less frustrating time

    On the recommended player front - well I tend to use Media Player, but on any file that fails that I always reach for VLC (Video Lan Client) which is available here: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

    It's never failed to play any format that I've thrown at it

    Neither WMP or Real Player have ever worked for me in terms of screenshots...which is a shame because at the moment I have to download desktop wallpapers if I want a good DVD background menu (without getting photoshop and doing all that kind of stuff...photoshop is the work of the devil [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]) etc...hmm...I haven't thought about trying DivX Player...

    *goes and tries it*

    nope...that didn't work either, I'll look about for this ZoomPlayer thing and try that...
