As per title, when I use the DVD player that comes with my Macbook, all I get is images with chequered squares.
I need to do some screen shots from a DVD (for which I have permission from the director before anyone asks), so is there any I can download, for this purpose?
Cheers!

If the normal screengrab isn't working? You could use snapzpro
Command-Shift-4 for a selective screen grab, Command-Shift-3 for a full screen grab
Surely you can just pause the video then do a standard screengrab? There's two versions, command 3 and 4, IIRC, one allows you to marquee the exact area you want. It used to work on my old PowerBook, but I haven't tried it since I upgraded to Leopard.
Cheers folks.
I was doing command shift 4 to screengrab, which works on every other application apart from the DVD player, so I was thinking that maybe there is anti-piracy software built in to the screen grab?
Have just downloaded snapzpro and it does just what I need - cheers!
In VLC you can also export a single frame of a video.
VLC has a built in screen grab if the native OSX one (CMD-SHIFT-3) doesn't grab the video for some reason
Brilliant! Thanks for all the help. For a Bucie bonus - can anyone guess the film? 🙂
