| 4. Screenshot (optional) |
If you like to have an screenshot, it is quite tricky to get it. MS Windows uses video overlay to get maximum quality of the picture. Either you need to use HyperSnap-DX or something else, that can extract image from overlay, or you can use VirtualDub to display the picture using non-overlay method and then use Print-screen to get required image.
I will try to describe the procedure which uses Hypersnap-DX. Install the HyperSnap and choose from menu: Capture
Enable Special Capture. Then check all possible check-boxes. Remember the key combination required to use this type of capture (Please use: ...). Click OK to close this dialog. Minimize HyperSnap.
Scale. You can scale it as you wish, but if you intend to put it as a part of Video DVD Autorun, you need to resize it to 410 x 190 px. Ideal is use of Adobe Photoshop's function Crop to size (with automatic keeping of aspect ratio).Everything's ready !
You can burn the Folder (so Autorun.exe will be in root), you can just watch the movie by running Autorun.exe or use it in Video DVD Autorun.
