Screencap Help Please!
Can anyone please help me figure out how to get high quality photos from a video on a dvd?
My second shooter at a wedding I shot a couple of weeks ago did not get some of the shots I asked of him. Now I have numerous great photos of the bride with her various family members (my shots) and none of the groom with his family.
The mother of the bride has the dvd from the videographer. Can I get high quality shots from that? If so - how? Like, how exactly, cuz though I'm a photographer and artist and writer, I suck at technical crap and I don't do video. I'm fairly adept at photoshop and lightroom as far as processing photos, and know some Illustrator, but that's the extent of my know-how, including what kind of extensions go with what. I have creative suite if that helps, though I've never used any of the other software in it.
Or do I need to get some different kind of source from the videographer himself? I need to get this done asap. The bride lives close so is easier to get her dvd, but if the quality will suck I need to get a hold of the videographer asap.
Thank you!

But the problem is - you can't get high quality from a DVD. The video is 740x480 px max and that is just tiny in comparison to an average 3000x2000 you get from a regular photo :/ If the video guy was recording with a digital cam, there is a good chance he might have it in HD, that way you could get 1920x1080 resolution which is a lot better than dvd. I've had HD screencaps printed at a photo lab and they came out awesome - after a little bit of photoshop treatment which you are familiar with :D
