Moving Frame-By-Frame in WMP

Okay, I read some tutorials on screencapping in WMP, and I want to make a mini-movie icon of a scene in "Degrassi: The Next Generation", episode 315, "Accidents Will Happen part 2."

I know how to screencap in Windows Media Player, but I cannot figure out how to move one frame over.

I have Windows Media Player version 9.00 something. I also have QuickTime, but I can't figure out how to open the video (a .wmv file) in there. It says that it's not a movie file or something.

If it's impossible to move one frame over in WMP, then can someone please tell me how to open the .wmv file in Animation Shop 3? I've tried saving it as a .mpg, .mov, lots of different filenames, but nothing seems to work.

Thanks!!
(And very sorry if this was covered in a tutorial that I missed.)
