Hello; was able to do a "screen capture" (where I could save a screen shot
from a video playing in the player as a jpeg in "my pictures" folder) in
media player 10, but am unable to figure out how to do this same thing in
media player 11? If I remember correctly, the option of screen capture was
listed in one of the media player 10's menus. If this feature is not
available in the "11" player, is there a plug-in or anything I can download
to be able to do this? Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!

It was removed during the Beta testing.

No, there isn't. You'd have to go back to the "old way" of using
CTRL+PrtScrn buttons then pasting into Paint or Photoshop. If you get
a black pasted image, you need to turn off overlays in WMP's Advanced
performance options.
