How to take screenshot from any video

Media Player Classic screenshotTaking screenshot from any video or capturing movie frame is uncomplicated if you use right software. Instead of black hollows after using Print screen key in combination with Windows Media player you can have good quality screenshots with Media Player Classic, a Swiss knife for video playing. After downloading and installing (just unzip archive in any directory) make sure that you have proper settings for screen capture process.

In the settings (Ctrl+O, Playback->Output) choose VMR 9 or Haali’s Video Renderer if you installed it. Then stop your video or movie in the right moment (use Left and Right key on keyboard for fine tuning) and press Ctrl+I. You’ve just captured your screenshot! Choose from file formats jpg or bmp and save it.
