Sivy Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 all i can suggest is that you try pasting it into a different program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Rhett Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 You'll have to get a special screen capture program to grab pictures from video. Look around and download.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psionic Jedi Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 I wanted to get a picture of Jack Black in his Tenacious D - Tribute video so I went fullscreen with it (WMP7) and used PrntScrn button. Then I pasted it into a .bmp and it worked! It doesn't work if it's normal sized though. Wonder why o.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boba Rhett Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 You sure it worked? Did you actually save the picture or try editing it to see if it actually copied over? It sometimes will just show the actual video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCanr2d2 Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 Not sure, probably need to do Alt-Printscreen to print the active window, rather than the screen itself. (Had to do it recently to document a piece of software) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
