Help with screen shot

BigJohn&TheLions · 02-16-2005, 11:15 AM

I'm trying to capture a screen shot from a DVD. It seems to work fine when I paste it into image editing software, but when I save it it just comes out as a solid black shot. Any suggestions?

If you are using the "PrintScrn" button to do a screen capture of
video, that probably doesn't work.

You have to use your DVD playback software to create the capture for you.

I use PowerDVD, so I have to hit 'C' on the keyboard, and then paste that
into my image editor.
