Need Help From MAC Users

[dandu]

I am looking for a program that rips frames from movies and turns them into picture files. Anyone with help on that?

This is the one I use for frame captures:

I don't have DVD ripper but here's a link:

There's a free one on this page (below the PC one):

You can always pause the movie on the frame you want and click command-shift-4. You'll get a target icon instead of your cursor and then you click and drag over the area you want to copy. The picture file will appear on your desktop as "Picture 1."

Um, no you can't. I just did this and got the following error:

Screen grabs are unavailable during DVD playback. Please quit DVD Player first.

If there is a workaround for this, please share. My current DVD Frame Grabber grabs everything on the screen, including the desktop in the background.

Thank you, but will it take a whole series of frames from a film automatically? Like I am computer colorizing this old movie and would like all the frames extracted for me to color in...

Sorry about that. I thought you could copy anything on your screen.
