use a better proggie like fotoshop m8, that's what i use for screenshots, with paint it's shit at exportin / saving pictures, often it cant support the number of colours that the pic actually has - fotoshop is only a 100meg d/l, and i'd have thought loads of people will have the full cracked version on the hub.

hmm i dont think its that mate. Becoz i no fly has fotoshop and he gets the same problem as i do.

.. hmm, know it's a stupid question but have u actually de-selected the pic?

(that little dotted retangle tool) ..


.. other than that, the only thing i can suggest is using photoshop; u know it makes sense

I know exactly what you are talking about and it's happened to me before. Try using the program 'PowerDVD', at least I think you'll be able to play all formats of videos on it given you have the right codecs.

OK, once you have the video open in PowerDVD you'll get the same problem if you simply press the 'Print Screen' key but if you look there is a button on the player titled 'Capture Frame'. Click it and then go into paint and press paste and that's you got it.

aye... but... my signature was a screenshot of the S&G - Twisted video. I dont no how i managed to do it before...

I think it has to do with the format of the movie, I've had the problem before, and this is the only explanation I can give, though it doesnt make much sense

I had some problems with taking screenshots from DivX movies. Somehow it doesn't work all the time ;(

Hehe there is a couple ways i have found out how to do it. The best is to use a program like pdvd to take the picture. But if your useing just media player you can try a couple things. Pause it were you want to take the picture back it up a couple seconds then put it back to where you had it. Works maybe 25% of the time, the other way i found if you pause it then go to tools >> options >> Performance >> Video Acceleration >> Move the bar down to none. then take your shot. Works allmost every time. Can also do a combo of the two.
