I think he was talking about using the "print screen" button to get a screen shot, then pasting it into a graphics program

printing from the screen or am I confused? if its trying to print steaming video read on, if not, dont worry lol

I think the reason you cant print it is because its not an image, or at least not a complete image, if you paused it, or stopped it and went back you could possibly get one blury picture out of it.

its like taking a photo off the tv, if the shutter speed is above, say 25,000th you can get a semi decent pic, anything under and all you get is a blur cause each frame isnt a complete picture, it takes over 5 frames to make one picture, but things are moving so it takes 5 more ... (5 is just an example, some take many more)

also like a animted gif, if ts only a couple of frames you can capture a frame, if its a fast mutli framed one you'l probably get a blank image.

**hope this makes sense**

You're right... I'm not exactly sure of the reasoning behind this, but it is probably only applicable to windows media player... I believe that in order for it to work with browsers, they would have to code in a similar technique. Sorry I can't be of more help!
