A . will advance one frame. Using the left and right arrows jumps 10
seconds. Using the up and down arrows jumps 60 seconds. Using page-up and
page-down will advance 10 minutes. Using ! and @ steps throught chapters,
I think.

I had this problem when trying to play videos on a TV via s-video. There
is probably a better way to do this, but opening the video once, pausing
it, then opening it again from a separate terminal will cause the video in
the second window to be captured with various print screen programs.
looking now at
man mplayer
/screenshot
(then 'n' to cycle through)
This seems to give useful information, but using the 's' key as suggested
didn't work for me.
Good Luck
Useful info, thanks. I've got the freshmeat xine working for now, but I'll
explore this later.
