I write the occasional DVD review for my blog and like to put up the odd picture or two. I have now bought a lappie with DVD player, the plan being that I take still pictures directly from the DVD rather than being reliant on whatever I can find on the net. What I don't know is what software will allow me to take such a still - I know I can just pause play and do a print screen, but surely there are other options? Without spending loads of $, of course - something I can download or buy cheaply off trademe. OS is Windows 2000 Pro. |

welcome to PressF1
Some of the dvd player software such as PowerDVD and Nero Showtime allow you to capture an image. Have a look in the help file for the software you are using, it should tell you if it can be done. |

You could download The GIMP. It has a good screen capture tool. |

Most (software) DVD players have a snapshot function that allows you to take a full-res, deinterlaced snapshot of the movie at its current playing location. If by some remote chance your player doesn't have this option, install VLC - that does. |

PowerDVD has a screen grab function. Works fine. |
