    Is there a program which can capture single frames of MPEG video and save them in JPEG or BMP format? Say I have two compressed videos, of the same footage but compressed by two different encoders. I need to capture the exact same frame from both of the two compressed videos to compare side by side. Is there a program which will allows me to do this? Please help as I have no ideas how this can be done.

    Simply load the clips into VirtualDub, go to EDIT, and choose COPY SOURCE or OUTPUT frames to clipboard.

    Then go to a graphic editor, ie IrfanVIew, or even MS Word / Power Point or any other program and choose EDIT, PASTE, and paste the image in from the system memory.

    Pasting into Word or PowerPoint won't work because he wants a final product of a BMP or JPG.

    Paste it into Microsoft Paint. Some newer versions of paint will let you save as a JPG, otherwise you'll have to save as a BMP. Or try PhotoShop, that program is great at saving JPGs.
