Question

It's my sisters end of school ball and she wants a dress like one worn by Rachel in Friends.

She's bought the DVD but I'm having problems grabbing the image off the screen. Could it be that the DVD is protected against grabbing images off it?

If so, what software can I use to grab the image?

Thanks!

Andy.

Alt-Print Screen should work.

If you've got PowerDVD (or if you can get it) that'll allow you to take screen grabs.

Jack,
Alt-Print Screen doesn't usually work with stuff that uses overlays to draw to screen, e.g. DVD Players, TV Cards etc.

The capture widgets in Paintshop Pro usually work for me.

Cheers
