I want to capture an image from a DVD for personal use as a desktop background.
Using Video Studio 8- will save mpg portions of DVD but when capture tab pressed, states there is no video capture driver or no device is connected.

Hi DC 
,
Had to fireup VS8 to refresh my memory...
In order to do what you want to do, first you need to get the video onto your computer. To do this:
1). Select the folder icon located to the lower left of the timeline/storyboard
2). Click on Insert DVD/DVD-VR.
3). If you have your DVD in your Player/Burner, then you should see a dialoge box that has your drives, and folders visible. Browse to your DVD drive and click on the + beside it. It should expand, revealing Video_TS folder.
4). Click on the Video_TS folder and it should open up another box, showing the Video clips, and duration.
5). Select the video clip that has the image you want to capture. Import that clip into the timeline.
6). Now in edit mode, you can navigate to that part of the clip you want to use as an image.
7). Then just Select Save as Image on the panel on the left side, and viola you have your new desktop background....
Hope that gets it for ya'

Hey, great advice
Up until step no. 7. I couldn't find a" save as image" in the panel on the left side -- what I did find was a drop down menu on the right (next to Tools)entitled "Clip...save as still image". That finally did the trick.
Thanx for guiding me through this.
