Im trying to get a screenshot from a movie that plays in an IE window. Its using Windows media player, but in its own window. Normal Windows printscreen only captures grey, so I tried a couple other Screenshot softwares, and they all capture grey too.
I guess this is similar to the other post, but Im still not having any luck, because the only way the movie will play is in the websites window. Any suggestions? Or anyone have luck with specific software that will capture screenshots from movies? Here is the link to the actual movie if anyone cares.

Yes, this is exactly the same as the other thread. Have you tried fraps? If so and that doesn'r work, is the movie streaming? If so, I have no idea. If not, as in it is like an MP3, then just pause it and try taking the screenshot.

If you are really desperate though, you could hook up a projector, and using a series of lenses project it onto photographic film, and scan that. Actually, scrap that that's mad.
