There are more ways to do it, but that's the easiest.
Hey Fletch how on earth do you manage to open 2 instances of windows media player?

Oh btw, if your doing lots of screencaps, get virtualdub + adobephotoshop, CTRL 1 takes the screen cap, you hit back and forward in virtualdub and its super easy to find the pic you want. You can even run a macros so you can hit 1 button and it will take the screencap, jump into adobe, place the image then jump back to virtualdub (use ezmacros).

If your after just 1 screencap per movie you can try fletchs suggestion if you can get 2 running it sounds good. Also if you goto windows media (options) turn off the video acceleration and then you should be able to take screencaps from windows media player movies.
