Hello Since no one replied for more than 5 hours I'd try -as much as i can- guide you to what I think.. Media player be default -just as any other media player BTW- displays the video by hardware acceleration. This means that it doesn't just display a sequence of still images, when you pause it it will keep displaying the last one!! Anyway, if you want to display a still frame of a video you'd beter use managed DirectX library. Revise the video section in C# multimedia articles for more informations.

Simple. Get the pointer to the Frame buffer through the WM API. Then from that display the first entry through Render call. It shall be done. Clicking on Play will restart the movie from the beginning though. To circumvent, put in a WM Hook to intercept the play button click, and continue from second frame onwards. I kno it seems a little complex, but trust me its easy adn you can find built code fo this.
