[tip] Easy screenshot in Windows Media Player 9

Many of you have probably already used this feature, or are at least aware of it, but I wasn't, so I thought I'd share.

Have a video clip that you can play with Windows Media Player that you want a screencap of? Easy. Load the movie, play it, and press CTRL-I while it's playing in Windows Media Player 9. I don't know if older versions of WMP support this. When you hit CTRL-I (ctrl-i), a save box will pop up and allow you to save the captured image. JPEG is the default format.

I didn't know this either. I'll have to try this to see if it works on DRM movies- probably won't.

I also added [tip] to the title name due to the posting rules here.
