Good program to take video screenshots? (resolved)
I'm not sure if this is in the right forum or not. ^_^;; I'm looking to take my own screenshots of Ayu lives, PVs, and the like to use for graphics, but I'm not so sure which program I should use.
I originally used PowerDVD, but ever since I just re-installed my OS, all my programs are pretty messed up, and it could take a while for my dad to get everything fixed up.... What is a good program - other than WMP - that can take good screenshots and play videos well? |
VLC media player is great if you get an earlier version than 0.9. I use 0.8.6 I think and I love it. But the newer versions are weird and crash when I try to take screenshots, + other things that make them suck. But you can get an older version from www.oldversion.com. :yes
|
VLC media player is just perfect for that job, plays back basically EVERY file, is easy to handle for the computer and has a screenshot shortcut
EDIT: I use the newest version and it never crashed for me xD |
Cool, thanks guys. :) I won't take any chances - I'll get the older version. xD I don't trust my computer. xDD
|
^ simply try both! the newer version plays files back WAY smoother and actually makes your computer work LESS and if it doesnt work, you can still download the older version
|
Well, I use VLC, but can anybody tell me HOW do I take screenshots with it?
|
^ under the video tab theres a screencap function and there is a shortcut, but i always forget the shortcut xD
EDIT: its shift+s |
I personally would recommend VLC too.
It takes like no time to save the files which is nice, because you can basically like press shift-s as many times as possible and you'll get as many shots as you wanted lol It's quite convenient. |
wait cant you just hit your print screen button?
|
^ Print screen is weird. It won't let you take nice screenshots. It's best just to use the inbuilt screenshot feature.
|
oh i remember using print screen when i had windows
thats how i made some gif back then :thud thankfully mac takes good quality screenshots |

By the way, if you want to take "screenshot thumbnails" of a video, you can use Media Player Classic. like this: Spoiler:
|
I never new, that it is possible to make screenshots with VLC-Player or Media-Player. I use the Koolplayer for Screeshots.
|
Got my computer all squared away a few weeks ago, shortly after school started, and now I just settled in and downloaded VLC AND Media Player Classic.
But I have to say, VLC is awesome. D: It supports .mp4's, which is great because most of my videos are in .mp4 format. Thanks again to everyone's help and suggestions~ ^_^ |
well,media player classic supports mp4,for your information.you just need to have the codec and set you video properties,and done
|
^ Yeah, well, I don't want to have to go to that trouble. WMP is already giving me hell with all this nonsense about .avi codecs, and I REALLY don't feel like dealing with any unnecessary codecs.
