Page 1 of Capturing fast motion snapshots from DVD recordings

WinDVD4 using hardware acceleration gives an excellent quality still of fast moving action when paused. But the snapshot function produces an overlay of two images displaced in areas of movement.

Print Screen does not work with hardware acceleration (the picture is on another plane beyond the windows interface), and turning the hardware acceleration off just produces the artifacts in the paused still picture.

PowerDVD gives the same result.

Is there a DVD software for PCs which can render perfect snapshots of fast motion / fast shutter speed DVD recordings?

Xine. Hands down, the best DVD player on PC in the world. Now go get yourself Linux. If thats too much bother, there might be a windows port... no sorry, can`t find one. Ah well.

It might not have sorted your problem anyway.

Hmm... Nero showtime bundled with Nero 6 takes snapshots fine... have you tried that? The demo should have nero showtime included.

Can you not play Win DVD at slow speed and then capture the image.

Not an ideal solution but I believe this should work.
