A really easy way to take screenshots is to pause the DVD wherever you want the screenshot and as long as it's still a clear shot, press fn and prt sc (for print screen) and then open up whatever editing software you're using and do control V to paste it. :)

Also, I feel like I should let you know that I've just watched like four Supernatural episodes in a row. I'm kinda watching it backwards though because I couldn't find the early episodes, so that makes the arc eps pretty entertaining.

I probably should have explained better 'cause that's the whole point!

I pause, printscreen, paste into psp as new image and it doesn't work - not from a dvd anyway! It's hard to explain, but basically even though you move the window around, the image inside doesn't move. And you can't save it 'cause it goes blank.

Try having it not be full screen when you pause it. Mine works for me then.

Okay, now that I'm messing around with it, it's not working on my computer either. I give up.
