• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Is there a utility that will allow me to screen grab while a DVD is playing?

the keyboard shortcut doesn't work while a DVD is playing....I didn't know that!

(In case there is anyone who doesn't know it):
Command + Shift + 3 for a full screen screenshot.

There is software that will allow you to take a screen grab from a DVD - go to versiontracker.com and search for one.

Also you might like to try:

Command + Shift + 4
Your mouse cursor becomes a cross hair, allowing you to select the area you like to grab.

Command + Shift + 4
Then hit the spacebar, now your mouse curser have become a virtual camera. You can grab anything it highlights.

Don't worry folks, Graeme have shown me the light. There's a free application called SnapNDrag that does what I need.
