What is the best screencap-ing software I can download?

Question

At the moment I have Media Player Classic, so I have to stop the video and then do that whole 'save picture as' thing. But I was wondering if there is any other available software out there that would do it automatically for me, so I don't have to stop the movie or show while watching it on my computer. Is there?

Usually I just use the Print Screen button, but you have to change some things first to make it work out instead of giving you a black box in the picture's place.

1. Open Windows Media Player (WMP)
2. Click the Tools menu
3. Click Options
4. Click the Performance tab
5. Slide the video acceleration to none.
6. Click OK
7. Start your video and try to take a screenshot

If you still have problems, do the following...

4. Click the Performance tab
5. Click the Advanced button
6. Uncheck Use Overlays
7. Click OK twice
8. Try your screenshot

1) The torrent protocol (that's the protocol all P2P programs use) was DESIGNED to be slow. We already had a fast protocol - FTP - but the faster the protocol, the more resources are needed. Torrent is a nice way to transfer huge files without slowing your computer (or the network) down. Don't complain about slow speed when you choose to use a slow protocol. 2) You're downloading from other users - with ALL P2P programs. If no one is on line with the file you want to download, it "doesn't work". It's supposed to work that way. If you want to download the song you want, when you want it, quickly, use iTunes. If you want it free, you'll have to wait. Sorry, but that's the way it works in this world.
