jayo  All-Star Member  2117 Posts 7/04 |  Posted - Apr 22 2012 : 1:09PMI was starting to write a new review and found that my main DVD player software, VLC, barfs when I try to do screen captures. I looked around and it appears to be a common issue with Windows 7, with no known fix. Any recommendations for a good DVD player with screen capture that plays nice with Win 7? [Link] |

Don't know if that has anything to do with your issue. [Link] |
| jayo All-Star Member 2117 Posts 7/04 | Posted - Apr 22 2012 : 5:14PM Interesting. I changed it to PNGs and it does work. But it still doesn't like JPGs. I noticed that even though I could change the preferences on the fly, they wouldn't "take" until I stopped playback and restarted again. I.e. if I was in PNG mode and switched to JPG, I'd have to stop the playback and reopen the disc and start again. Either way, no JPGs. Not sure what that means but gives me an avenue to investigate. Meantime I'll just save in PNGs and convert. Thanks! [Link] |
