How can I capture a single video frame and save as an image in PS CS6 Extended?

I have checked similar posts on this subject, but I have a problem doing this:
I "File>Open" a video clip [.m2ts file type] into PS CS6 Extended.
PS sets the "Pixel Aspect Ratio" for "HDV 1080/DVCPRO HD 720 (1.33)"
PS then warns of "Pixel Aspect Ratio Correction" for preview purposes only, and that it should be turned off for maximum image quality.
I advance the "Timeline" to the specific frame I wish to capture.
I simply "File>SaveAs" for a JPG image - as has been suggested.
Both the On-screen and saved images are grossly pixelated at 1440 x 1080.
Furthermore, the saved image is an incorrect aspect ratio - regardless of how I have the "Pixel Aspect Ratio Correction" set.
It produced a jpg image size of 1440 x 1080 at 635 KB.
I clearly do not know what I am doing...
Have I missed a process - either with the file type I open, or once opened in PS CS6 and set to the desired frame?
Adobe Bridge will display each frame in a high-quality preview - which I could be happy with, but found no capture/save tool there.
I went back to the software that came with the video camera and saved a frame image from the video clip just fine.
It produces a jpg image size of 2304 x 1296 at 2.63 MB with the correct aspect ratio.
After you stop laughing ... can you let me know what I really need to do to get the correct result in PS CS6?

Place the playhead on the frame you want as a still. Then in share window choose location Save Current Frame. You can then select options such as Jpg, PNG etc.

If I have a list of Vimeo videos on a webpage, how can I use just one video frame and have all videos play in that one frame?

I am creating a page with a list of Vimeo video links. I want to have only one video frame on the page. So no matter which video link a user clicks on, the chosen video needs to play in that one video frame on the page. How do I do this in Muse?
Thanks.

You can use composition widget for this. Insert the video details in trigger container and then insert that corresponding vimeo video widget in that specific target container. So It would work like, users will click on different video buttons but the actual video will play on same frame which is actually a target container of composition.
The ID that we use for vimeo widget cannot be used for different videos on same time , because every video shares its own ID and url. But you can surely try the above.
Thanks,

How can I capture streaming online video?

Hello,
I may be wrong, but I don't think OSX Lion comes with any app to capture online video (youtube, etc.)
How can I do such?

If you don't mind a copy of a copy you can use Quciktime's video capture (but you need to go through some extra gyrations to also capture the audio that goes with the video). Otherwise there are many flash downloaders available but the one I recommenced as the most general and full featured and also able to convert videos is Jaksta.
And I'm obligated to say that you shouldn't download from sites unless the site's terms of use permit it.
Here's a link to a macupdate.com search for flash downloaders.
Possible alternative screen capture utility could iShowU. Others of this category are shown in the Similar Software section of the iShowU download page I linked to.

How can I highlight part of the frame and track it as it moves around in Final Cut Studio?

I'd like to highlight part of the frame by reducing the brightness of the surroundings. My idea was to duplicate the layer, reduce the opacity of the lower layer to 80% and crop the top layer to the area I want. Problem is this, how can I then follow the area of interest as it moves around the frame without laboriously keyframing and adjusting the cropped area every frame. Moving the cropped layer moves the content so that's no good. I definitely have the wrong approach here ... struggling ...

Regio blur (which I have and love btw) won't help me as I want everything sharp. I thought of using a box wipe transition the san duration as the clip with a cut in the middle to set the effect on and having it at 20% for example throughout and keyframing the center postion as required. Two problems with that, can't find a simple box wipe in effects (only centere wipe) and when I try it with other unsuitable wipes the size of the wipe changes when I adjust its centre position despite having the start and finish at the same percentage ... still working this one!

In C#, how can I detect an opened PDF file and save it into disk?

he WebBrowse componente in C# opened an PDF file inside. The file came from the Internet. So, the Adobe Acrobat Reader was called and opened the file correctly. I want to save this file to disk. How can I do it?
The WebBRowse component does not have access to the PDF content.

PDFs are not designed to be editable. Your engineers can make comments using Adobe Reader without any extra steps provided they use the highlight and sticky note comments. If you want them to have access to the full range of comment markup you will need to use Acrobat to apply extended rights to the file.

How can I get text to appear over my placed or pasted images in InDesign CS6?

I am new to InDesign and am having a few issues. I have a basic template for a site that I have built in Illustrator. I have placed the design into an InDesign document (I have tried both copy/paste and the Place feature). When I try to use InDesign to overlay text on top of the image, it shows up fine whenever I export to an image file. However, when I export to HTML, the text gets pushed directly underneath the image in web browser (it's visible, but shows on white space below my desired template). Is there any way to fix this? I have already tried enabling "Ignore Text Wrap" on the text frame and the text itself is set to the front of the document. Thanks!

InDesign is not a web authoring tool. If you’re expecting text to simply overlay a graphic in export HTML from InDesign you’re going to be highly disappointed.
I’ll make the assumption you know nothing about web authoring tools and HTML/CSS. I suggest you look into Muse.

How can I capture live HD video direct to hard drive?

Hello,
My goal is to be able to capture 1080p video from a camcorder direct to the hard drive of a mac. Space is a concern, so ideally this would capture directly to a Mac Mini, but if the only option is to upgrade to a Mac Pro or MacBook Pro (for Thunderbolt), I may be able to work with that. What I know about so far are the offerings from Black Magic:
1) The H.264 pro recorder: http://www.blackmagic-design.com/products/h264prorecorder/
2) and the Ultra Studio 3D: http://www.blackmagic-design.com/products/ultrastudio3d/
With the first option, I'm worried about the quality. Ultra Studio 3D is very expensive ($1000) and would require upgrading to a MacBook Pro for Thunderbolt, but I'm open to that if it is the only way to get full 1080p quality.
I also have read about an app in the Firewire SDK called DHS cap. I haven't been able to try this since the cameras I have access do not have Firewire, but if people have had success with that, then I can purchase a camera that can connect through Firewire.
The last thing I've read about is Capture Magic HD. I would like to test this as well, but it appears the developers are out of business (their website is down), and i cannot find the software anywhere.
Any advice about the best way to go about this would be greatly appreciated. I've been googling away and searching forums for days now.

Really? You've never opened up the capture window?
Never since about CS2.
I have had a tapeless workflow for ever... so never had reason to even take a look at the Capture Window in later versions of Premiere.

How can I do a separate video in and out on my 21.5" iMac, and only have 1 thunderbolt port?

The set up that I have is one 21.5" iMac using the thunderbolt port I am sending a feed to a projector and a couple monitors for our worship service (To display the lyrics). Now I am ready for video broadcasting online, I have a camcorder connected to a Blackmagic Design Intensity Extreme which has a thunderbolt port to connect to my iMac. But I have a problem, the 21.5" iMac only has one thunderbolt port and it's already in use (For the worship service lyrics). Is there any way to receive the HD video feed from the camcorder/Blackmagic set up into the FireWire port? Or use the thunderbolt for the camcorder set up and use the FireWire port to send the video feed for the worship service?

Hello all those who took the time to help me with my problem. Thank you all. Yes I do have the option of sending it back to my camera I have found again since I went into iMovie.
My problem was I did the slide show in Iphoto because I wanted to use the Burns effect and the only option was to put it into iDVD (not iMovie) from there.
By putting the shots in iMovie I can send it back to my camera BUT cannot use the Burns effect so I am left with the black side on each side of the picture in the postcard. Guess you can't have everything.
THanks again you have all been very patient and helpful.
Stella
P.S.
re: It's in iMovie HD 7 that the Share menu appeared. .......No, it's in 6.0.3 on mine but only in iMovie not in the iDVD where I was trying to work.

How can I stop the nuisance video ads and add links being generatesd, since getting the latest Firefox update installed, I HATE them getting in the way?

Little video ads appear at random times on the lower right of my screen. Also, in some sites a few "key words" are being converted into hyperlinks to unwanted advertisers. In some instances, we also see this appearing on the East Arkansas Community "Campus Connect" site, promoting other online educational organizations that are in potential competition with our institution. This is unacceptable.

hello angrommet, this sounds like a problem caused by adware active on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

How can I move projects out of aperture and save elsewhere

When I restart Aperture it is continuously busy 'processing' unless I rebuild the library each time; that's time consuming and annoying. I think I probably have one (or more) somewhat corrupted images and I liek to isolate it/them. I though one way to try would be to save e.g. projects somewhere else and then delete from Aperture; repeat until it's OK. Maybe there are better solutions? If not, how do I save parts of the library and bring them back later after finding they are OK?
Thanks,
Alan

Thtat definitely looks like you have a corrupted image somewhere.
If you have the "continuously busy 'processing'" at start-up, then probably some recently imported image is corrupted.
What I usually do to track down the culprit is to defer the generation of previews on start-up:
Press the Shift key immediately after you start Aperture to prevent preview generation for that session. This should take care of the "processing". Then systematically select some of your most recently imported images and try to update the Previews for them (Aperture menu bar -> Photos-> Update Previews). If Aperture stalls/crashes again, then you will know that the culprit is among the most recently selected images.
Inspect these images careful in the inspector (launch Aperture again with the shift key held down) and look if any one of these look suspicious (file format, size, filename or version name). E.g. I once managed to crash Apertue by importing a 2GB file, or b importing a file with invisible characters in the filename.
Remove the suspicous files and see if this solves the problem.
If you have the photo stream turned on don't forget to check the PhotoStream or your MobileMe albums for corrupted images.
To answer your question:
If not, how do I save parts of the library and bring them back later after finding they are OK?
One way to do this would be to export Aperture items (albums, projects) as a new library (File -> export -> Project/album / as new library. This will preserve all edits, keywords, tags, folders, etc.
Later you can reimport this library and merge it with your current library. (File -> Import -> Librar/Project)
