GIMP image capture

I have a quick question and I am really hoping that someone out there will be able to help me out.
First of all I am still learning and trying navigate my way through GIMP, and with the help of some tutorials posted, I have learned a good amount. So thanks to those who posted those tutorials.

My question is this through my navigations I found that you can pick Acquire from there you can pick Screen shot, and you grab what ever is on your desk top at present time and save it. I thought that maybe that doing this while I had a DVD playing, not only would it capture the whole window in which the DVD was playing, but also the picture from the dvd. I am apparently wrong. How ever I was wondering if there was any other way in which to do this with GIMP?

I want to pause the dvd and capture the image through GIMP. Is this at all possible?

Hope someone out there can help. Thanks in advance!
