I wasn't sure where to put this so I opted for here. Anyhoo my questions is: How do you take screenshots? You know, like on Worlds Finest when they will have some screenshots from episodes. I was just curious.

Well, we've got a little gizmo called a Snappy that's attached to the computer and then you connect the VCR to it through the Audio/Video out feeds. It comes with a program, and then you just pause the tape at the scene you want and it 'snaps' the picture and saves it.

I'm curious at how others do it too.

Same sort of thing here except I use a little thing called WinTV which slots inside the computer then you simply connect a cable from the PC to the VCR, run your vids through the monitor and just click to 'freeze' the action and save the pics as jpgs, bmps etc
