AVI2DVD will not capture snap shot

[dkinney]

I am using AVI2DVD but the program will not let me capture a snapshot from the avi file. It plays in the background, I can hear it, but the video does not show in the preview window. I have K-lite codecs installed. What am I missing here?

Do you have to use avi2dvd to make a snapshot(like it makes a screenshot for the menu)?

I would use Media Player Classic, file->save as image or VLC Media Player to make custom screenshots.

I am using the capture from the DVD menu creation section of the program. I have VLC Media Player that I use for playing the video, but have never tried to use it to capture the background image for the AVI2DVD.

Thanks for the help. VLC Media Player did the trick.
