mara- Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Hi,Can somebody recommend me a good tool that can capture frame of my choice from video. I'm doing some conversion and I need to compare screen shots from my original source and from my converted video. I need it to support MKV format and h264 codec. Thanks.Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HX1 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I thought MediaCoder, Sony Vegas did this.. ( you have to load it and go into the frame by frame if I remember right ) I know most screen capture software will not because of the layering on the desktop...

*dcs18 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Try Camtasia Studio latest release is 6.0.3 Build 928. It's developed by TechSmith , the people who designed the SnagIt Screenshot. These guys are the market leaders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaKa WaKa Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 A lot of media players can capture frames... I use "Media player classic" for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use "Media player classic" for that.Yeah, just after I posted i sow that I can go to specific frame and make a screen shot. But, i would need some tool that can take a screen shot at same resolution. I want to convert some video from 720p resolution to 480p and then I need to capture screen shot from 720p source but picture needs to be 480p so I can check the difference.Cheers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HX1 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Wait.. :blink: what your saying your trying to do would be pointless to compare.. do you mean size instead? or s it that you can't get 720p source to show up.. Seems as though it would be whatever your system is set at.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to take picture that has lower resolution then the video.Try Camtasia Studio latest release is 6.0.3 Build 928. It's developed by TechSmith , the people who designed the SnagIt Screenshot.

Downloading it now and testing.EDIT: I was right. This cant do what I need. This is tool to record a video.

WaKa WaKa Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Use photoshop to convert 720p frame to 480p (you dont gonna loss much quality, barely detectable by the average naked eye)And use PNG or BMP ( both lossless). Dosnt use JPGIf you use FFdshow in your media player, you can use the filter resize tochange the 720p to 480p and then take the snapshot.A minute later. :frusty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If possible give it a shot (because you already seem to be using it, seen some screenshot of yours.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
