I need some help...

I want to capture some screens from the movie star ship troopers, I use powerDVD wich is supposed to be able to do this but the button is not active or something. (settings are fine in powerDVD) I've also tried to do Print Screen and then paste into a drawing program but everything except the frame from the movie gets shown.. really weird...

Now is there a way to do it because I really need those images

PowerDVD is the only WinDVD program I know of that will work....

Not sure why you are having problems with it. I downloaded the trial version and it works just fine.

What version are you using???

PS, if anyone knows of a free program that will get the job done. PLEASE SHARE

I'm trying to remember, but I know there are setting for the capture option. Some capture to the clipboard, others capture multiple files to your hard drive....

Try right clicking in the screen area and look how the options for that button are setup??????

Did you try all of those???

Does the button not even PUSH??? Like it's greyed out or something?

Does it work with any other DVDs??? I think I might just contact CyberMedia. I think that's who makes PowerDVD.

What you need to do, is go to configuration, go to video, then where it says "Use hardware acceleration" make sure that is unchecked. If that doesn't make the capture option available, try changing the video mode from autoselect to either bob or weave, but I don't think that does much. With hardware acceleration unchecked, DVD might be more choppy, but you should be able to capture. DVD playback will depend on your system configuration, especially how fast your CPU is and how much memory you have. But with the hardware acceleration on (which uses the graphics card) you probably won't be able to capture even though performance is better.
