Snap shots/image captures?

[Michiru]

I'm not exactly sure if this relates to website help, but I couldn't find another place to post it:

Does anyone have any idea how to capture images from movies/GIF's on media player/DVD player?

I have these programs:

- Adobe Photoshop 6
- Paint Shop Pro 8
- PowerDVD
- Media Player
- Real Player

I've tried pressing "PRNT SCREEN", and other alternatives. But none seem to work. :/ Please help?

Do you have a cd rom recorder? or dvd recorder on your computer? If so you can use the programs that came with it...and if so what programs did come with it? As far as I know none of those programs will capture scenes.

PowerDVD has screencapture. Just click the little camera icon on the controls. (first you have to set where to save the files in "advanced settings")

Oh? I'll have to try that! I'll get back to you to let you know how it goes. :)

[EDIT]Ok, I tried what you said. My PowerDVD doesn't have a camera icon on the control, and it also doesn't say anything about screen capture in settings. Maybe you have a different version?

What version do you have? Where exactly are you looking for the icon?

Eh, sorry for the late response. ^^;

BUT, I did figure out how to screen capture, finally! It involved a procedure where I had to go into my computer's properties and change a setting, but forget what it was...xD JUST AS LONG AS I CAN SCREEN CAP.

To see some of my screen cap's, go visit my site and look under 'Inner Senshi', and then choose a senshi, and then their 'magic'.

I'm not sure of the exact version, Mars, it came with my laptop and is just called PowerDVD.

But thanks anyways you guys! :D
