Default Freezing a frame in a video?

Here's a vid of me racing my buddy at the track awhile back, can someone freeze the frame (I guess its called? when you turn it into a picture) of the very beginning of the video where you can see my car at the line?

I'd do it for you but i'm at work. Just save the video on your computer and upload it to windows movie maker and capture the frame. I'm pretty sure you can do it that way, but I could be wrong.

In that video I ran a 14.1 cause I was wheel hopping but my other runs were 13.9's which was a little higher than I was hoping for but decent for being stock at the time I suppose.
BTW: How does the Borla sound? I've always wanted a Borla Catback

If I had the original video and could play it full screen, it might look okay. You can do it yourself though.
1- Download FRAPS here: http://www.fraps.com/download.php
2- Install it, and run it.
3- With FRAPS running, start your video fullscreen.
4- hit the F10 button on your keyboard when you want to take the snapshot.
5- FRAPS will store the picture in the C:/FRAPS folder as a .bmp file

Hope this helps.

Just realized FRAPS costs $37! Anyone already have FRAPS or another program and want to do me a favor please?

Sorry to bother you mates, but this seems to be the only thread I can find about video playback problems. I have a related question to ask you guys. Recently I recorded a gameplay video with Fraps and later found it was too big. So I downloaded this program (It says it supports lossless conversion so i believed then: http://www.videoconverterfactory.com...ps-videos.html) to help me compress it. But after conversion, the original AVI file got converted into MP4 and I found there was some quality loss and the frame rate also dropped a little. I want to know whether you guys know any better parameter settings which can make it better?
