Windvd SOS

[layangabi.livejournal.com]

Friends, cap it posters who are wise in all the ways of screencapping, I entreat thee all for thine aid. It is said that with Windvd4, it is possible to make screencaps simply by pressing a little camera button on the interface: alas my friends, *my* windvd4 doesn't seem to have this little camera button. Right where it's supposed to be, next to the bookmark button, is a little blank button that does nothing whatsoever. I hereby beg thee friends, to tell me what is wrong, and what I must do to attain the holy camera button.

I thank thee...

I don't have an answer, but I must say that your icon is beyond sexy. You just gotta love, Faramir, ne?

Is it the Dell version? The Dell version doesn't usually come with capping capibility.

[killerspork33.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the Dell version sucks. I had to sell out some serious cash to get a better version of PowerDVD.

Thyne query may be solved:

That scurvy knave of a button hideth from you. Thou must press keys, one by one, finding ye keyboard command for the same thing.

All programs have keyboard controls, i hardly use my mouse at all. Try C, or just all of them. Or you could go into options, and set one.

^____^ We thanks thee and agrees with thee with all our being. Faramir is beyond sexy and all must love and worship him. So says the falcon stands stalwart with him on his shoulder.

Ah, here might the answer lieth. It doesn't say, friend. But I thank thee for offering an answer to this mystery. (do you know where I can check what version my Windvd4 is?

[layangabi.livejournal.com]

Ah, thank you my friend. ^____^ May the God of screencaps ever smile down on ye. How would I go about setting the keyboard controls in options?

[azdaja-dafema.livejournal.com]

well, what are the options listed? Usually there is one section. It may be in the advanced stuff section.

[peacefully.livejournal.com]

I haveth no clueth. I use only PowerDVD, though I didest hear about the problems Dell programs have with screen capping. I wouldth think though, that the program may say Dell on it as the PowerDVD version doeth.

Yeah, I'm rusty on mine olde english.

Well, I righclick the screen, a menu pops up, I goes to setup, and sure enough, there is an option that says open browser on screen capture, but I can't access it. :(

[azdaja-dafema.livejournal.com]

aha, do you have any parental block things up?

[layangabi.livejournal.com]

Nope. O.O Nada, friend.

[azdaja-dafema.livejournal.com]

*racks brain thinking*

What does it say, when you aren't allowed to access it?

[layangabi.livejournal.com]

Nothing, really...the option is there, but it's just not available.

I think, however, I may have discovered why. Searching around the help section, there's a little aside that says not all Windvd4 programs will come with this option. >.< Mine seems to be one of them...(very furious, precious, yes we are...)

But thank you for helping a desperate technologically incompetent newbie, friend. :) *bows to azdaja* May the screencap Gods ever bless and keep thee...^^

[azdaja-dafema.livejournal.com]

oh, i'm sorry about that.

Let the SC gods favour you, pointing you in the right direction for a place that does.
