Go to download.com and look for "Media Player Classic", Download it.

If you want to capture still pictures, run media via Media Player Classic, and pause. There will be a "screen capture save" right under "File".

Media Player classic works better than VLC, or others, since it can load any format (provided u have all codecs) and loads REALLY fast. Thats my opinion anyway.

Have Fun!

Correct! His method works.

But to get the whole bunch of codec u can go here http://www.free-codecs.com/download/k_lite_codec_pack.htm to dld the installation file. It includes MPC too. Choose install full with player when u r installing. After installing, open the video file using MPC and follow the above method .

Yup~

And if you have a Webcam/integrated webcam you can capture from that too!

Just go to

File -> Open Device -> Click Video (and Select Your Webcam).

From there, if you want to capture that pic, just click the video/or spacebar to pause, and follow the same steps to save a screen capture.

Hope that extra info helps too~
