Screen grabbing from a DVD

[LeoZwalf]

I'm a little behind the times - just got myself a DVD drive for my PC. I'd like to be able to capture frames and save them as JPEGs (or whatever image format). Anyone know of any software which would let me do this? Tried PrtScrn but that doesn't work

Thanks in advance

GOM player...very like Windows media player..but allows screen grabs...Google it & download it..pause the film..then just right click..video settings...screen grab....

This will do it, no problem.

Or the cheap way, turn hardware acceleration off in config, and press PrtScr.

Thanks peeps, I'll give those downloads a try later on.

I have used the 'vid acceleration off' trick in the past with non DVD video (admittedly it was ages ago, way before WMP 10 and this PC) and it worked fine Thought it'd work this time round but the effect was exactly the same as with acceleration turned on

IIRC both PowerDVD and WinDVD have that capability built in. WinDVD has the little camera icon thingy that can capture on the fly.
