Ok, maybe I can't do it because I am not supposed to, but Dvd's don't allow you to take screen shots, is there ne way around this, or is it built into the Dvd [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Thanx

I can do it on mine. Depends what you use to play the dvd. If its software based then you could try the "print screen" button and paste it into a paint type package?!?!?!

I've tried it on interactual and win dvd by pressing print screen and pasting into Paintshop pro, but the paste will only work if you have the dvd software running, once you close it down the paste is blank, even if you save it when there is a picture there, if you re-open it after you close the dvd software down the picture appears blank .............

Get yourself a copy of PowerDVD. One of the few DVD players that actually allows you to do screengrabs
