I use Sony Vegas 7, but I'm assuming this sort of thing is the same across all Vegas versions.
I know you can make a still frame by clicking the little button above the preview screen and it'll take a screencap that you can then put back into the vid. However, I find I have problems with this. These are:
1) I use widescreen aspect ratio clips (black bars top and bottom) and when the program takes a screencap, it seems to include those black bars. When I then put the screencap back into the program I have to reset the aspect ratio on the screencap to exclude those black bars. When I do that, the clip gets zoomed in ever so slightly, thus creating a sort of "jump," in the finished video (because of the size change), rather than a smooth transition into the still frame.
(Not sure if that makes sense... hopefully it does.)
2) The second problem I have is that the stillframe isn't as good a quality as the video clip it came from.
Can anyone help me to fix these problems I'm having?
Or is there a better way of making a stillframe in Vegas (or even utilising another program like Photoshop)?
Any help greatly appreciated.

About a week ago i emailed 'Hoyts' an Australian movie theatre and i just got a reply.
Apparently Australia's release date is 8th January...
"Thank you for your feedback, we have some good news for you. The Australian release date for the film TWILIGHT has been set for January 8 2009. We will have it updated on our website very soon."
Im from South Australia, so hopefully its the whole of Australia, not just S.A :D
