Silberio Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Howdy. As many people may know, i make mods for GTA, and sometimes, i wanna take screenshots of some movies i got in the comp, as a "reference" in the mod render, kinda, but when i take screenshots of a movie, and paste it in MS paint, it either apears all black OR if i keep playing the movie, i can even watch it on MS paint . Help me someone please! thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaz The Great Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I've never been able to screen cap WMP, Winamp, MPC, or even my dvd software. Try finding a player that has a screen cap feature, perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Lord Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Use Fraps.It has a screen shot facility. Dunno if it might work for the way you want. But Fraps is capable of capturing Movies.So i guess it might take a shot too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silberio Posted May 2, 2007 Author Share Posted May 2, 2007 Yeah, but doesnt fraps only works with Full-Screen games, or Applications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xaozon Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Open Window Media Player Then go to Tools | Options In Options, select the Performance Tab Way below you click on the Advanced Button Uncheck “Use Overlays’ Other methods: Instead of the Print Screen Method - try pressing “CTRL+I”. This pops up a save as window after capturing the screenshot After you open Window Media Player. Go to Tools | Options | Performance Tab. You will see a picture similar to the first image above. Reduce the “Video acceleration” from the default Full to None, click ok and then close down media player. Next open the file you want to take a still using the Print Screen method - from press ALT and the PrintScrn key to copy an image of media player to the clipboard.

Pandora Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 I never figured that out myself. Woo, it works! Thanks Xaozon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Anyone ever tried that trick where you take a screenshot, save it and add it too your desktop and if you had a video playing for example it will play on your desktop (presuming WMP is still running)? Tried it a few times, very funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use to have a card for capturing my cable((perfect for playing my PS2 games and taking screen shots)), when you minimized the software it came with, the video feed automatically replaced the desktop background, it was pretty cool.
