Dizzy,
I use PowerDVD whihc has an option for capture. It's real handy too as you can do multiple captures. You can also toggle the movie to the exact frame you want then capture.
It's a real handy prog, imho.

Got the program bundled with my DVD burner. Made a folder in My Documents,
set up PowerDVD to save to that folder and it's all good.
Of course I used Fifth Element to test it. Man, I need help.

If you are using XP you might want to check out Windows Movie Maker (download from
Microsoft). I was playing around with it today using some music videos that I have and
works pretty decently. I didn't try it with any DVDs so I don't know if it will work.
Just something to keep in mind to use in a pinch if you don't have PowerDVD installed.
