• using Mac's own DVDplayer.app does not support screengrabs

• install VLC

• use Mac's standard key-combo (cmd-shift-4/shift/click) to grab still

be nice to ©opy-rights 😉

This worked perfectly. I installed the upgrade version of VLC and open the DVD with it and was able to "grab" pics as I went along which showed up on my desk top for eventual use in a word publication. I hope the fire department doesn't consider pics of their trucks as copywrite violations.

Thank you for the quick help.
