I just happen to have a pc catalog right in front of me...turned to the
page where Snappy by PLAY Incorporated is shown. The ad sates..."PLAY"S
Snappy lets you grab sensational PC stills from any camcorder, VCR, or
TV...Snappy captures breathtaking images in 16.8 million vibrant colors
at record breaking resolutions _up to 1500x1125_"... I assume when it
states resolutions _up to 1500x1125_ that it must depend upon factors
other than Snappy; perhaps what you are capturing from or maybe your
computer speed/configuration??? I am not sure...the words in quote are
from the ad...perhaps someone else can explain more about Snappy?
