is powerdvd crippled on purpose ??? - Club CDFreaks

Image Man · 11-03-2008

i use powerdvd v7.xx to watch regular dvd and now bluray.
when using regular dvd i can press the "C" key to capture the movie frame to a file. (ie grab a picture) but when using a bluray the key does not work. i rechecked the settings and nothing is changed. so i must assume that part of bluray protection may be to dissable the capture key ??? or am i missing something ?

thanks..

Screen capture feature is not supported during the HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc playback in PowerDVD Ultra.

There's probably a reason for this.
