Hey. I have this kind of... problem.

It's about my computer.

When I want to print screen off a Flash movie or a DVD, it just doesn't work. If I try it and paste, then it just shows the movie at the point it's reached, not at the point I tried to snap it at. If I print screen and then pause, then paste it, then it works, but only until I unpause the video.

Anyone know how I can just get a god damn screen shot? It's very important to me to have this as my background.

Thanks.

videos aren't displayed in a way that allows you to take screencaps. You need a program like virtualdub that will allow you to copy frames to the clipboard.

Oh, that would explain it... okay, thanks for that

Cyberlink PowerDVD has a capture feature.

Ooh, that's very useful since I already have the programme.. um.. can't find out how to do it though. Where is this feature?

Nothing wrong with baldy prog dudes (which reminds me bodast you finished with my dvd yet), it could be worse she could have a balding poncho wearer

Yeah. I'll give them to you on the... date that I see you in about two weeks at that gig on a Tuesday. (Tuesday? Yes, I think so.)
