I have a few .AVI videos that i can open in Widows Media Player that i need to print still images from. I don’t want to [Shift][Print Scr] because it loses a lot of the picture quality.

I have Photoshop too if it helps answering this question…but whats the best method of doing this?

video capture card or some type of video editing software should be able to stop the frame by frame and actually allow individual frame seperations…

and with the files you are using odds are they are low quality, so when you do take a snap shots its not gonna be a great picture anyway…

I think you can dump screen shots with LVC media player… plus it has some filters which may help with the quality issues

Honestly though, any way you go… the quality isnt going to be very good

video capture card i mentioned cuz i didnt realize the avi’s were on his computer, at first i thought he meant getting em off a digital camcorder or so.

LVC is a good option to try also as I’ve used that player before and it has alot of options.

The video i have will be editing isn’t of great quality to begin with, i just want to minimize any loss of quality.

Anybody have a LVC Media Player download link? I’m finding nothing.
