I use it to watch videos but I didn't know you could add text to the video. I dont think you can make the screenshots bigger except using a photo resizer like I do to change the size of the screenshot. I prefer using virtual dub to make screenshots, so I don't have to keep pausing it.

Change the saved file format to .png. You will get huge image files. You can then convert to .jpg at whatever compression with software. Irfanview is freeware that you can save image files as .jpg and choose the compression.

And why would you want to change resolution from the original?

Yes, you make a good point. When you look at the images on Imagebam they are the same size. Well, I like those big HD or HQ saved images. 400 kbs or bigger. I guess I can't make it like that with VLC. Quality and size.

How does one go about making larger snapshots on the VLC Media Player? I mean the ones that I can do are only about 45-55 kbs. So I would like to make them bigger. This VLC media player is pretty cool. I like how you can add text to the video or make it "psychadelic". It's groovy!

Can you recommend one? I use faststone image viewer or you could use faststone photo resizer. I usually convert them to jpg format.

There's already a couple of topics about recording HD here you may want to check out.
