How do you grab an image off your computer screen from a DVD movie?

Ranger H8 Train:
Print Scrn or a dedicated capture program will work.

This http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/ seems to do a good job (if you have a Mac). I don't think Print Scrn will work due to overlay issues.

You could use something like DVD Shrink to rip the DVD to MPEG format, then use something from Ulead to capture a still.

Your DVD playback app may have some still capture feature.

If you have an ATI Video Card, they have a utility called the ATI File Player that can play the VOB files from DVDs, and also has a snapshot feature.

Windows Media Player doesn't have a DVD Decoder.. do you have any other software installed? I'd say the easiest way for now would be to download the InterVideo player.. you can get the trial version and it'll work for a while, but it's got a pretty cool capture facility...
