FFMPEG is an awesome tool and today only i found that FFMPEG can extract JPEG image from video. To achieve this following are the software requirements.

• FFMPEG
• GD Library

FFMPEG Syntax:

ffmpeg -i 'video file' 'image file'

Example:

ffmpeg -i test.mpg image%d.jpg

This will create images on span of 1 second.

ffmpeg -i test.avi -ss 1.4 -vframes 33 -f image2 output%2d.jpg

In this example the image extraction will start from 1.4 second and will extract the image till 33rd frame.
