I think you have to try playing the video in a player that will do a 'still image' capture.. then paste that into paint/paintshop and crop.
Or depending on the video type.. you may have to capture it to another format first, then do a still image capture from a video player.
Someone else might be able to explain better.  |
Yeah, I am 99.9% sure this is what is happening. To the person above me, I understand cropping is to take everything out but the part I want, but I didn't know another word for it, so I just said that.
Do you guys know of a video player that I can take a still image from? I am not sure I can do it with WMP11.
P.S. I said to move the image I want, because that is what I do when I do it with other images (not from video), then I just open a new document and paste it there. I only move the part I selected to see if it worked properly, sorry to confuse.
