Extracting Vidcaps from MPGs
 

Anyone know of an application [shareware/freeware] that extracts frames [not all the frames--just the ones you select] from an .mpg file?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the link but I can't find an "extract" feature.

If you just need to grab some screenshots from mpg's, try snagit. I use it and don't have any problems.

in elecard.. hit the GRAB button, it's the same thing, and yeah, snagit is also a good program too!

Does it allow you to pick and choose which frames to grab? also resizing frames?

Thanks

i also use snag it....then resize in thumbsplus

Media Resizer from mediaresizer.com

Looks like it uses too many steps... is there a more streamlined solution?

Snagit

too many steps? Snagit is point, click, save.

If you have Video Factory or Vegas Video (both from Sonic Foundry), it's a snap to get high quality vidcaps at whatever resolution and format you want. That's what I use.

VCD Cutter

all can be found on download.com

I like VCD Cutter the best. Point and click, it saves automatically to the directory you choose without prompting.

It's easy with virtualdub

VCD Cutter and Dazzle will do it

PSP animation shop.

load, click, save.

I have an XP professional OS. Everytime I try to extract using VCD Cutter, the program crashes. iS there a fix for this?

extracting from an mpg? Also, the interface for virtualdub is pretty hard to navigate.

print screen

seems inefficient.

But I don't want the WMP tool bar image captured as well. Just the frame. I checked out Snagit's home page and it captures entire screens.... I don't need that, just the frame.

Why do you keep bumping this? You have like 12 solutions in here. =]

It will just capture the frame if that is all you want. I know, as that is all I ever do.

Does snagit allow you to pick and choose which part of the screen to cap?

yup

Thanks,Labret, I'll check it out.

get BSPlayer (a pretty nice media player) - it captures frames into jpg. http://bsplayer.org/

You also can do it easy with http://www.videocharge.com

This has a thumbnailing feature... how about a full frame extract?
