Hi
I'm trying the capture the first frame of a windows media player mpeg using Paint Shop pro, but each time I save it and reload it its just black :( Anyone know how I can do this? cheers Neil |
Alt Gr + Print Screen to capture the image from WMP. Then in PSP Ctrl+V
or is this what you are doing and it is still blank? |
yep - thats what I'm doing and its still black - tried it on 2 pcs now - both running XP / PSP7
take a screen capture, save as Jpeg, close then reopen file and voila - nowt but black :( [Edited by NeilT - 19/07/2003 15:59:10] |
You need to turn down/disable the hardware acceleration in the performance tab of options in media player..
|
Yeah, this is because the media player is writing direct to the graphics card's memory, avoiding the Windows layer altogether. Turn off hardware acceleration and you should be able to do it. :D
Either that or if you're running XP, play the movie in Windows Movie maker, which has a facility to save stills from any movie it's playing. |
great stuff - sorted - cheers folks
