Extract still pictures from video into one jpg file (as an overview)?

[21335]

Hi,

I have been reading in this forum for quite some time. But here is MY FIRST QUESTION!

I am looking for a programm / an application / a tool / a utility that can do the follwing:

Extract still pictures from a video file in a regular interval and put all these stills in one jpg file (as an overview).

I have googled a lot but found nothing for Apple Mac that would do that.

Any help is appreciated!

Hi,

You can do that with the Search Pane in SimpleMovieX.

Once you've displayed your 16 or 64 frames taken at a regular interval, just use Screen Capture to do a screenshot of the pane and you have an overview.
Of course, it's a bit limited but it works.

Regards, BJ

Hi BJ, thanks for the hint.

I had a look at it, but cannot find where I can "display my 16 or 64 frames at a regular interval". What is the menue I have to chose / click on?

And if you happen to be on the PC rather than a Mac . . . ?
(I know ways to get single capture shots -- this is a different situation.)

Screen Grabber to do that (it's a very simple app) and it's donationware
