ive been trying to work this out for a while, i wanted a screenshot off a DVD, when i pasted the clip into paint the movie was still playing so i could not save a screenshot, i have now found it on YouTube and taken a screenshot from that so im quite pleased now lol

IrfanView [clicky] would've done this for you with its captue option most probably it is a very fast, small, compact and innovative FREEWARE (for non-commercial use) graphic viewer for Windows 9x/ME/NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista.

Alternatively - you could've taken a picture of the movie playing on your TV with a digital camera!

I still prefer my beachbums...

In powerdvd you can take a snapshot to a file in .jpg format by pressing the little button with the camera picture or pressing c.

Pauldm,

What car is that you have. I like it!!!

It looks like a variation on the seven theme with improved aerodynamics.
