Full Version: Screen Shots
I'd like to be able to take screen shots from movies. I've tried pausing the movie and using PRINT SCREEN on the computer, but all I get is a black picture. Does the movie have to be loaded on the computer, or is there another way to do this?I'm tring to build a model railroad and wanted to get pictures of some of the old western towns and buildings to model.I'm new to all of this and if anyone can help I would greatly apreciate it. Thank You!

I don't understand why is this Q located in this section (i.e. Ripping & Burning)
but for this I am using the handy button with camera symbol in the PowerDVD player. Then Open PhotoShop, Create New and Paste from Clipboard... and the bitmap picture is ready to be saved.
