Hi,
It strikes me that with the ability to frame by frame as well as speed up play forwards and backwards, DVR would be ideal for stills capture, but I dont want to be naming a still each time its made.
I need to make many, extracting key moments from historical footage, deleting the not so good grabs afterwards.
VLC Media player as well as Jaksta I have Q key as stills, and I can hit it bang bang bang and the stills get made and saved, no file naming involved, vital to capturing a sudden flurry of good frames.
The destination is pre made in settings/preferences. The name is a frame number and date, so each is unique and ok for windows etc.
Whilst other players do stills capture, if one misses a moment where something good occurs, going back a few frames is not possible, drag the slider and despite being careful one has to watch the last 2 minutes all over again, only to perhaps miss the moment again, and watch 2 mins a second time !
so can DaVinci make stills captures without asking for file names ?
THIS WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY USEFUL BEYOND WHAT WORDS CAN EXPRESS !
I have found that if I video an object then make stills bang bang bang etc, I can use them for Photogrammetry, far easier than wearing out the camera taking 300 images of one statue !
