dvd screencaptures

perth · 10-16-2002, 07:24 PM

anyone have any idea how to get a screenshot of a movie played on dvd? ive tried screencap programs and ive tried bumping hardware acceleration to none. those were the only two things i could find tonight after a couple hours googling. any ideas would be most appreciated.

In xine (for linux), there's a button to take a picture of the screen in the lower left hand corner of the control panel. Its the camera-looking one.

For windows, I dunno.

got it. windvd has builtin screencap support too. i was trying to find a way to do it without having to install any more software, but i guess that went down the tubes with the first screencap software i installed. bah. its nice software at any rate, demos arent always bad.

thanks verbatim! one of these days ill have a linux box with a dvdrom drive on it, and ill remember that.

Yeah, and that works as of v0.9.6, but the little spectacles-like tape icon next to it doesn't seem to work for audio capture at this level. Is it working on yours?

I'm looking at 0.9.8 right now, and nothing down there besides the screen capture works. The camera is the only one that does the mouse-over highlight, too.
