Did anyone get the CTRL +I thing to work because it won`t work in my windows media player 9,but isearch a bit and found another way to do svreen shots in WMP 9.Goto tool in WMP9 click on the performance tab and slide the acceleration slider to the bottom and hey presto you can take a screen shot just open it in paint,but remember to turn it back up to play your movies as it kinda goes all wierd if you put it on to full screen.
Worked For Me - Im Using WMP9 in XPQuote:

you still cant paste while the media player is off or minimised
edit - :D
Lol i should have tried this before opening my mouth.You just get a blank screen but i did try the one where you turn the accelerator down to minimun and opened that in paint and got a screen shot.
lol :D
try it then play the film with the player maximised and watch it in paint/photoshop :D
you don't have to turn the accelerator down when you uncheck overlays
with it unchecked you can prtsc and ctrl+v in paint or photoshop ect
have you actually tried to do this, if you paste the image in paint or photoshop then minimise the player or close it then you lose the image until you open the player again.Quote:

you dont end up with a static copy
it appears that there are two check boxes for overlays :rolleyes: :"> :-" :D
Yep Turning your Hardware Accelaration OFF will alow u 2 take screen shots from WMP
DivX and BS Player will not open if u have your Hardware Accleration turned off
yes, but i'd still rather use CTRL I btw :-" :D
