Sony Vegas and Media Studio Yep, I know they're not related, but they both fall in the Premiere Alternative bracket in my humble opinion! Post here for Ulead Media Studio or Vegas video problems or pointers...

Default A pretty basic question

Hey all,

I have what is probably another very basic question regarding Vegas Pro 8, but I cannot figure it out myself for the life of me. Is there any way for me to take screen captures or still images from the video that I have uploaded to Vegas? We just want some stills from the film we're working on but I have no idea how to make this happen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks a lot!

On the Video Preview Window "toolbar" there are 2 Icons. One does a Copy to Clipboard ( good if you want it to go into a Graphics Editor) and the other "Save Snapshot to File . . " ( good if you want a "real" hard-copy).

Points to recognise:

* Have the Preview Quality set to BEST

* The 2 methods produce a different number of pixel widths.
