Re: Image Capture for Real Player?

Try this very interesting experiment. (It won't get you what you want, but it's very interesting, and it might spark an idea in someone's head about how to actually get a screen shot.)
  1. Play your video in Real Player.
  2. Press Alt-PrtSc to capture the Real Player window image.
  3. Paste the captured image into Paint.
  4. While the video is still playing (or play it again, if you need to), position the Paint window so that the region of the Paint window where the video image would be is over the Real Player window.
What you'll see is the video playing in Paint!

Another interesting thing: As I was looking for a video to play in Real Player, I came across this video archive page for the Central Florida Regional. You'll notice that there, on the page, is a perfect screen capture of a match being shown in a Real Player window! Just a thought: Maybe NASA paid for their Real Player, and if we all weren't so cheap, we could do screen captures too.
