VLC ActiveX and Snapshots

Hi. I have an application I am working on in C# using VS 2005. I have the VLC ActiveX plug in and it works (plays videos, etc). What I am trying to do is have a button on the form that the plugin is embedded in that will simulate the snapshot function. I have figured out the options to set the snapshot path and format to my custom settings. The only way I have found to get the snapshot to work, however is to double-click the video as it is playing (makes it full size), and then CTRL+ALT+S. Is there a way to code a button to send the keystokes and do this? I have been playing with C# SendKeys.Send(), but amd having no luck. Any suggestions?
