I just downloaded Windows Media Player 10. I tried but failed to capture
images from a DVD.

The instructions in WMP's help file read as follows.


To capture a DVD image
On the View menu, point to DVD Features, and then click Capture Image.

Notes
This feature is only available if video mixing rendering is turned on in the
Player and the DVD decoder and display hardware support video mixing
rendering. To turn on video mixing rendering, on the Tools menu, click
Options, and then click the Performance tab. Click Advanced, and then, in
the DVD Video area, select the Use video mixing renderer check box. Some
display hardware only supports video mixing rendering if the screen
resolution is set to 800 x 600 pixels and the color quality is set to
16-bit. For more information about changing screen resolution and color
quality, see Windows Help


I followed these instructions, but I couldn't find "Capture Image" as an
option, Not even as a greyed out option. I did go to my
tools/performance/advanced menu and checked "Use video mixing
renderer. The help file also says that some display hardware only supports
video mixing rendering if the screen reolution is set to 800 x 600 and the
color quality is set to 16 bit.

Well, I set my resolution to 800x600, and color quality to 16 bit, and then
I came to realize that I don't have a video render plugin for Windows Medai
player. I found one on the net that costs almost $1000.00. Are there others
that
are cheaper or free for Windows Media Player 10? Thanks in advance.

Let me ask you a really fucking stupid question. I'm very good at those...

Does your display hardware support video mix rendering?

Hmm, I wonder why they'd include the "capture DVD image" in WMP 10 if
they're worried about the legality.
I'm not sure how to check if my hardware supports video mixing rendering,
but I am able to do the DVD
captures with PowerDVD. I just wanted to see if I could do it with WMP 10 as
well.

Is there an easy way of checking if my display hardware supports video
mixing rendering, or do I have to
call my laptops manufacturer?
