[Frameworks] High-definition frame grabs

[John Davis]

Hi Jihoon,

As mentioned, you can only obtain SD quality (72dpi) from the screen,
following which you have to up-res (re-sample) image to bring to
print-quality. There are a few techniques/tricks to doing this, but all
require some Photoshop tweaks/knowledge.

Subject:  [Frameworks] High-definition frame grabs

Dear frameworkers,

Anyone who can advise me how to obtain high-resolution (600dpi) screen grabs
from DVDs? I'm in preparation for my book manuscript and want to include
some frame grabs as its accompanied illustrations.

Perhaps someone who has obtained frame grab images for his/her publication
of a book or a journal article will advise me what software application I
will have to use. I'm a macbook pro user and usually play DVDs and get
screenshots from them with VLC, but it is unlikely that only VLC can't allow
me to get the high-resolution screenshots that are acceptable for
camera-ready copies. Thus it is appreciated anyone recommends me a program
for the purpose (a Mac OS program is preferred, but a PC program is also
welcomed).

All the best,
