I need a couple still shots for a report I'm writing, can't find them on the web, but they're right there in this video clip I've got.

In the options there should be a performance tab. Set the hardware acceleration slide to none, then you can take screenshots of the video.

Also, irfanview is a great program that can display images or video clips. There is an option to extract the frames of the clip and you can also screenshot.
