I wanted to use a particular frame of a film as my desktop
picture (The Shining - the quick cut to the butchered
sisters lying bloody on the floor). So I loaded up the film
into VLC Media Player, found the frame I wanted, and use the
PRT SC function. I then opened up IrfanView, and pasted the
image. Seemed to be fine. But when I saved the file, all I
was left with was a big blob of blackness. The picture had
vanished.

What did I do wrong and how do I rectify this?

there's a capture frame function in VLC. use that instead of
the old Print Screen button.

Oh yeah, I remember using that once - I'll give that a try.
Thanks Jack.

as this thread is now redundant i'd just like to say that
i've been enjoying those lennon home recordings quite a bit,
particularly the 11minute long 'Serve Yourself' on the 9th
disc.

so thanks for pointing it out to me.

No problem! I'm glad to have passed on some aural pleasure
:)
