Stills from video cam...

    I have a HP 735 Photosmart Digital. I can use it to take video clips which upload as .avi files.

    I want to take a still from one of these .avi files and capture it as an image for printing. Does anyone know if it's possible to do this using any of the standard players - I've tried WinAmp, Media Player, Quicktime and RealPlayer.

    I know I can do a screen grab ;but when i try that the image is really small, and the size doesn't change, even when I enlarge it in Paint (I don't have Photoshop).

    Any ideas?

    Cheers!

    Check the export setting in WinAmp or Quicktime. Under options you should be able to change it to export as .jpg or .bmp.
