What a nice, easy program to use. I wanted to be able to grab a frame
from an AVI video file to use the image on a web page. I found this page
and it pretty much told me the whole story in about two lines of code:

To grab the first frame, keeping in the original pixel size, I did this:
ffmpeg -i infile.avi -vcodec mjpeg -vframes 1 -an -f rawvideo outfile.jpg
And to install it in Ubuntu, I did this:
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
Life is *so* much easier with Ubuntu than with Solaris. There are some
kind Sun people making Solaris packages on demand though. That helps a
lot because it is such a bear to get Solaris to compile many new programs.
