If Anyone Wants To Get An Image File, I don't know why, but the stupid Media Player won't let me get just a simple image shot. It keeps giving me some kinda linked video file, so my 'image' changes as I watch the video on the player, and goes blank when I turn it off. Any ideas? Or just upload your own, there's only like two different choices for anyone who has the NYU video... For future refferance though, does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I'm using the Alt + Print Screen meathod on Windows XP. It's really really annoying. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 16:38, 26 Mar 2005 (MST)

The problem of taking screenshots of video has to do with hardware acceleration. To take screenshots, you'll need to turn hardware acceleration for video playback off. To do this, you'll need to go to your display properties (Start Menu --> Control Panel --> Display --> "Settings" tab --> "Advanced" button --> "Troubleshoot" tab --> "Hardware Acceleration:" slider control). You should move this slider to "none" and then click OK. This will allow you to use the print screen button to capture video screenshots like you would normal screenshots. It might make fast forwarding videos a little weird though, and you should restore your settings when you are though taking screenshots. If this wasn't helpful, you should be able to find more information through a Google search. -- Tom 22:49, 27 Mar 2005 (MST)

Size Change

Is it worth mentioning somewhere (not necessarily here) that Trogador is much bigger in Happy Trogday than he was in the NYU Talk? Compare the size of Stinkoman in the NYU screenshot and the size he was in the toon. --DorianGray

Add'd. --NightOftheLivingEric

Katakana

I'm a Japanese student, and I think that Trogdor's Japanese name is more along the lines of トラーグドア(Toraagudoa). --The Great Aussie Evil 22:20, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Tree Sap or Cartoons?

I'm pretty sure that "anime" shouldn't have an accent. With the accent, I think it refers to a tree sap used by varnish makers.

The distinction is essentially moot, because the most correct version of the word, insofar as its usage here, is in Japanese, which certainly has no written accents. The accent is for English speakers unfamiliar with the word who might otherwise mistake the "e" for a silent "e". 24.165.178.120 14:03, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Arcade

This probably isn't true, but should it be mentioned that Trogador is the way the arcade game pronounces it.. You lost me, didn't you? -- Lazylaces Talk 01:31, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Actually, that's kind of a hotly-debated topic. You should check Talk:Arcade Game, or wherever it's listed. --DorianGray 01:33, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
