Looks like my previous didn't go through. It's either in a moderation queue or wasn't posted because of the link, I guess.
I've also found that even using the same video card and frame grab process, the player can affect the look of the screenshots. Many of the captures I've seen online suffer from what I'd call a "VLC" effect and don't match what I see in my players of choice. I've just made a post about it on the blu-ray.com forums:

(sorry for the incomplete link, I just registered and am unsure of whether I'm allowed to have links in my posts yet)
If you have the time, could you clarify whether the QuickTime and XBMC captures look closer to what you've been seeing, or if it's still far off?
