😫 The Problem

You are watching a lecture or tutorial in Full Screen. You need to save a formula, a slide, or a memory.

1. You press Print Screen.
2. The video minimizes, or the "Pause" overlay appears and blocks the text.
3. You have to open Paint/Snipping Tool to crop out the browser tabs and taskbar.

😎 The Solution: AltCap

AltCap grabs the raw video frame with a single keystroke.

1. You press Alt.
2. Done.

The clean image is instantly saved to your downloads.

🎯 Perfect For...

• Students: Snap formulas and slides on Udemy/Coursera instantly for last-minute revision.
• Memories: Save high-quality (HQ) moments from vlogs or music videos.
• Clean Capture: Gets the video only. No mouse cursor, no play bar, no window borders.

⚠️ Important: "Black Screen" Fix (Udemy/Netflix)

If your screenshots come out Black, it is because of Chrome's Hardware Acceleration (DRM protection). To fix this (required for sites like Udemy):

1. Click the 3 Dots in the top right of Chrome.
2. Go to Settings.
3. Click System on the left menu.
4. Turn OFF "Use graphics acceleration when available".
5. Relaunch Chrome.
