Screenshots don't show up for me.

How do you take a screen shot of an mpeg file playing in windows media player? I press the print screen button, and when you paste the image in an editor, everything is there except the video area! How is everyone else able to take a snap shot of video playback?

Nevermind, I found a fix. Windows Media Players hardware acceleration uses 2 seperate layers and print screen only captures the layer thats ontop, which doesnt have the video, just disable hardware acceleration (move the slider all the way to left) and print screen will work.

Thanks for the Answer, I've been trying to take a picture in Quicktime and ran into the same problem.

Now I know how to do it, woo.
