Exactly when is the Still taken from a video podcast?

Hello!
I noticed that when I add a video podcast for which I did not specifically add some artwork in iTunes, iTunes automatically takes a still to put as the episode artwork. It's not during the first 8 or so seconds of the podcast, but a little after. Is there an exact moment when the still is taken, like after, say 12 seconds?
I would appreciate a response, so I can better time the video.
Thanks in advance.

Well, you are right of course, but I was hoping it was possible to do this in iMovie, apparently it is not. The problem is that I encode my movie DV from iMovie in Visual Hub for settings H.264 iPod, Apple TV and iPhone. I know that I can then take that file and add the artword ("poster frame") in either QT Pro or iTunes (add artwork), but I am afraid it might mess up the file and the file won't be comatible anymore with iTunes etc. I guess I'm wrong, it's probably possible to do so. A pity it takes an extra step.
Thanks for your input and I'll mark the issue as answered, unless I am wrong in my comment (in which case please let me know).

  • When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

    I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

  • When a pdf is taken from illustrator, white lines appears on images. How can be avoided it?

    When a pdf is taken from illustrator, white lines appears on images. How can be avoided it?
    I use illustrator cs5. It occures mostly on the cover pages of brochures which contains images, texts and some effects such as drop shadow etc.

    Thanks for your reply.
    When smooth line art is turned off in Acrobat preferences,the lines disappears but the text becomes raserized and goes its smoothness. Not only that, we are not sure that everyone who is viewing the pdf has the same settings in their laptop or desktop.
    Is there any other solution to remove these lines? I have added the screenshot of a part of the pdf.
    Thanks once again for your support.

  • How do I create a still photo from a video in the new iMovie?

    How do I creat a still photo from a video in the new iMovie?

    I'll assume you want to create a still to use outside FCPX, not a still frame within FCPX.  It's kinda hidden in the "share."  Go File/Share/Add Destination.  You want "Save Current Frame."  After you've created that destination, it'll be there for you in the future under Share.

  • HT204088 I want a receipt for the payment taken from my visa card.  Why am I finding this so hard?

    I want a receipt for the payment taken from my visa card.  Why am I finding this so hard to find/obtain?
    Cheers, Paul.

    Receipts are sent to your email address. It sometimes takes a couple of days to arrive, so if you just made an order, wait a couple of days and the receipt will probably show up. Otherwise the only option is the Purchase History as described in the support article from which you came, and there's no print mechanism so you would need to take a screen shot of the relevant page.
    Regards.

  • HT5085 I ordered a TV series-I can see where the $$ was taken from our account but I can't find the series anywhere on my iTunes account??

    ordered a TV series…I can see where the $$ was taken from our account but I can't find the shows anywhere in our itunes account.

    Hello NMS1,
    It sounds like you are unable find these TV shows you purchased in a series, but you have been charged for them. I would start by checking to see if you can download them from your Purchases in the iTunes Store with this article:
    Download past purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
    The steps are different if you are on an iOS device vs. a computer, so choose the appropriate section for the device you want to download them to.
    If you cannot find it in your Purchases, I would next reach out to the iTunes Store support team for additional assistance:
    How to report an issue with your iTunes Store, App Store, Mac App Store, or iBooks Store purchase
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1933
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • I have a MacBook Pro. How do I capture a still picture from a video in iMovie and print the still picture?

    I have a MacBook Pro. How do I capture a still picture from a video in iMovie and print the still picture?

    Click iMovie/About. If you have version 9.0.4 (iMovie 11) this will work. If you have an earlier version, this will also work, but there are also other ways.
    First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
    Open MPEG Streamclip.
    In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder.
    Drag this clip into MPEG Streamclip
    In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
    In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
    Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
    You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.
    I have created a short video Tutorial on how to do this. There is one error in the Tutorial, where it says that Command-click is the same as right-click. I should have said Control-click instead.

  • How can I export a still picture from a video clip?

    How can I export a still picture from a video clip?

    I'm able to export stills from iMovie without anything extra. I create a new project - call it Exports say. Now, in your event clip with the frames you want as stills, select a single frame and drag it into your project. Repeat for other stills you want to export. Then choose Share -> Export Using QuickTime.
    In the pop-up, choose Movie to Image Sequence. Click Options and choose the image format you want. Playing with the number of stills lets you pick how many stills you want from each second of video. Hit OK and the stills will be generated in the directory you choose.
    I've only done this with HD video. Don't know how well it works with lower res, interlaced vid.
    HTH,

  • How do I create still photos from a video in iMovie?

    I am looking to create a still photo from my video.  Is this possible?  Thanks for any help you can give.. 

    If you want to create a still frame from within iMovie, move your playhead to the frame you want a still image from and ctrl-click. You'll get a slightly different option to create a still frame depending on whether you do this in the project or event window.
    From the event window iMovie will add a still at the end of your project, from the project window it will add a still at the playhead.
    If you wanted the still on your desktop rather than in iMovie, select the still, ctrl click and choose reveal in finder, copy the image to your desktop and undo your actions in iMovie to remove the still from the project.

  • How do I capture a still photo from my video footage??

    Probably easy I know, but just wondering how to capture a still photo from my video footage. I pulled a particular clip into my viewer window and have found the still shot I want, what next??

    Put the playhead over the frame in the timeline and choose Modify>Make Freeze Frame. It will appear in the Viewer window. Drag it into the timeline.
    If you want a photo for iPhoto etc. put the playhead over the frame and select File>Export>Using QuickTime Conversion.
    In the window that opens change the "Format" setting to Still Image from the dropdown menu.
