MAC print screen question

[JazmenFlowers]

so, I know that print screen on a MAC is shift, apple, 3

but why does that not work while playing a DVD? is there a way around that or do I have to have some kind of screen capture software?

Hey Jazzy. It won't work while playing a DVD in the DVD Player app because of copyright reasons or whatever. If you download VLC player, you'll be able to play DVDs with it and make screen grabs.

VLC is love. I don't even bother trying to view things in Quicktime anymore.
