Taking Video Clips from Movies

[matttibb]

How would you go about taking a small clip from a movie that you have on your pc?
Would also like to know how to take a screenshot/still from a movie too :)

Cheers

Wow, matt. Haven't spoken to you in ages.

My only thought at this time is using "FRAPS", but this may not work with DVDs, I haven't tried it. I know it works for games, so you might get lucky.

I'll try it out... Yeah how you been? Havn't spoke to you for months...

Hi Matt, not sure about video clips but for a screenshot you can play whatever your watching in VLC media player and take snapshots :)
