How to capture images from a video playing in Window Media Player

To capture images on computer screen just use the “Print Screen” key on your keyboard. But the problem is that you can’t do that to capture video images playing in Window Media Player if you don’t change one thing in its options. I’m going to tell you what you should do. To capture images from a video you just do some steps below (working on Window XP, I haven’t tested on others yet):

Open your Window Media Player, I’m using Window Media Player 9.0, if you use other versions, I think it’s just the same in the main idea.

From the menubar choose Tools, then Options

The Options window appears, choose Performance tab and then click the Advanced button.

Uncheck the Use overlays checkbox in the Video Acceleration, then click the OK button.

Now you can capture as many pictures as you want use your “Print Screen” on the keyboard. I think Window Media Player is one of the best players to enjoy music and videos. Now we all know we can capture video images playing in Window Media Player.
