Dear Screen-L subscribers:

I am interested in obtaining the highest quality still image from a
digital source, either an external DVD or laser disc player or an
internal DVD drive. Does it matter what capture program is used and
what platform? In what ways might the quality of the DVD affect the
capture? What video settings/image sizes are optimal? Should the
image be paused or captured "on the run"? What format/file type/color
settings should the image be saved in to retain the most information
for a publisher's art department to work with?
I'm interested in people's experiences with this for publication
purposes. Have any definitive specifications emerged for this process?
thanks
