Hey, what programs do you guys use to capture videos? Like watching the PV of Ueto Aya..and you want to capture the pics from it..what do you use?

I use Ulead Player..but sometimes the capture option is available and other times it is not..I want a player or program that capture all the time.

I hope thise make sense..bad with computers

I use PowerDVD for my screencaps.

Powerdvd is good and retains a lot of quality but you'll have to convert it into a jpg since I believe it captures into a bmp. I like using intervideo windvd since it captures directly to jpg and it's already compressed too. I think for some of the MLC screen caps I did, the pics came out to be like only 30-45kb so that's a pretty nice compression from that program

Yep. BMP it is.

I guess I'm a purist: I want the image raw then I can choose the compression amount.

Hahaha, control what you want to do with the pic and not let the comp decide for you

It might be because I'm using an older version of PowerDVD, but I prefer using Windows Media player and the Print Screen button. The steps are long, but the images are vastly superier, at least for me. PowerDVD screencaps always came out a little jagged for me, anf horrible on widescreens.

For the screencaps, did you choose Window Size or Same as Original?

a good player that handles many different file types for screen capture is BSPLAYER. there's options to save as JPG or BMP.
plus its freeware.
