[OT] Is there a way to capture still frames from .VOB video files?

2006-10-20 Thread Richmond Mathewson
VLC can play .VOB video files

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

then any old method of screen capture should grab a
shot

which you can then edit in something such as GIMP

If you're on a mac, you can do a screen grab, cmd shift 4 and select the area


Thought someone might know whether this is possible.

A client has sent me some video on DVD. The files have the extension 
.VOB. I can play them in Windows Media Viewer no problem, but I'd 
like to be able to grab individual frames for use in Photoshop or 
whatever. Anyone know if this is possible? And er, if so how it can 
be done.

If you download VideoLAN (www.videolan.org) and 'Open Disc' you can  
stop playback and take a Snapshot (under the Video menu).


Cheers,

Luis.
