Looking for a program that will allow me to capture screen shots of a movie while I"m watching it. My PC does it using PowerDVD but is there one for the Mac???

apple shift 3 will do a screen shot of the whole screen and apple shift 4 will do a screen shot of a selected region.. both will take a screen shot of quicktime..

hmmm ok... I knew about those... is there anyway I can specify a folder for where these images can go instead of being thrown on the desktop? Cuz I do screen grabs for a tv series and I take well over 300 images of one episode, I don't want to be cluttering my desktop and having to stop to move them into a folder....

also if you do apple shift 4 you can press the space button to take a picture of the window instead of having to drag select it.
