hello
don' know if Apples "Grab" utility questions can be addressed here but thought Id try.
in a flash of mistaken brillance, I decided to take a screenshot of various DVD's of mine, some made my me from my own VCR tapes
then Id fiddle with them and makemyself a database of stuff I have.
but Grab as many of you know and I now discovered does not work with DVDplayer open. Apple is being cautious re copyrighted material I guess. thats fine.
Soooo, is there another app freeware/shareware/$$ware that can do this? a way aroung Apples disbleing Grab for DVD.
this is for my own private use etc
thanks rotut

Wow!
to answer my own question, Ive heard from MacNN that VLC player works. v0.7.1a works in "selection", but "window" ends up with a black picture.
am downloading v0.8.1 and will report back later today. hope this is fine with this forum's rules.
it seems like a usefull think to know about for keeping track of things. Moderators please let me know if this is out of line with this forum.
thanks rotut -

It does not unsqueeze anamorphic discs, but if you have photoshop you can set up an action to do it. It gives the best image quality I have found. Much better than a screen capture with VLC.
BTW, the YADEX interface is not exactly intuitive, and it only lets you capture stills in 0.5 second increments, but the image quality is why I use it
