Bsplayer; Frame Capture Problems

[Proper Bo]

Whenever I try to capture a frame using BSPlayer, the jpg it creates is always just a green/purple blur, the objects in the frame can't be seen at all. Can anyone help? :huh:

I didnt know you could do that with bs player.
How do you do that mate?

[Proper Bo]

Whilst the file is playing press either;

P for the original size

or

SHIFT+P for "what you see"

Or alternatively, right click in the screen and click "Capture frame"
Make sure you choose a destination (in the preferences) to save 'em to.

Anyone know how to solve my problem tho? :D

[ghost944]

Yea i see what you mean mate about all them different colours
Dont have a clue how to fix it though i cant see anything to fix it in the options.

[Proper Bo]

Anyone else out there had this problem and fixed it??
I really wanna get this sorted :(

this may be the most stupid thing i have ever said (don't worry, i'll probably say something more stupid soon), but how about pausing the video, then capturing the frame?

That probably IS the stupidest thing you could say! Do you think I hadn't tried that?! :P
P.S If you hadn't realised yet, pausing it 1st doesn't work

EDIT: That sounded more harsh than it should have :)

why dont you just pause it and press "prt sc" on your keyboard, then go into paint and hit "crtl + v" and it will make a screen shot, just edit from there

lol, i did warn you before i said it :D
looks like someone just above me has also had the same idea
no offense taken, i apologise for my stupididty, i'm really not that stupid :blink:
i just get confused sometimes
sorry

[Proper Bo]

That's really awkward, especially if I want to make a lot of captures.

[Crack_man]

or use Virtual Dub anc capture the pictures.

[TheFilePirater]

well its better than messin with b's

[Proper Bo]

Does Virtual Dub have the same function? Is it as simple as pressing a key whilst watching the file?

[TheFilePirater]

just use my way, vd is easyer but it can mess things up when screen shottin

[Proper Bo]

:D It's a lot slower but i suppose it'll have to do

EDIT: WOW!! My first hot topic! I'm so proud
