Product Description:

DVD Capture is a helper application for the Apple DVD Player. DVD Capture will NOT work on all Macintosh Hardware configurations. This affects mainly non-G4-G5 Towers. It has been difficult to determine all the possible configurations that the application will not function. If your get a blank, black screen when capturing, then your hardware does not support the capture of DVD screen shots. The application enables the user to take screen captures of the DVD Player Viewer in full screen mode. The captures can be saved to a file (PDF, JPG) or placed on the clipboard. An AppleScript is provided for the DVD Player script menu that launches DVD Capture. Select "File" or "Clipboard" to assign a location for the capture.

What's new in this version:

Improved file handling.
Window selection capture has been disabled by Apple for the DVD Player and is not available. The capture is achieved for different sizes by controlling the size of the viewer area in the full screen mode and cropping.
Image Events is now used to crop and convert the capture to JPEG.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

Mac OS X 10.3
Mac OS X 10.2

Additional Requirements:

Mac OS X 10.2 or higher

I used to use this on my old G4, and it worked really well. Just today I needed to use it again and I am happy to report that it works fine on my 2x3 Dual-Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro tower running 10.4.11
Just letting you know.

instructions crap, product ok - Version: 2.5, 1/30/2008 12:00AM PST

Doesn't plug into dvd player, sort of sits on the side. Would be nice if it integrated fully, but having to use both controls to do frame by frame advance then capture is annoying. Saying that though, the quality of the images was good. Yes it did include some of the background, but not as much as some of the other reviewers.

same problem as klausgruenberg - Version: 2.5, 6/4/2007 10:37AM PST

this program worked great a long time ago. i've tried the current version on different computers and i get about 75% of the dvd screen, and the rest my desktop.
