Is there a software program that automatically save stills from a QT video?

Just wondering if there's any software out there that
will automatically save stills from a QT video?
There's a program called Image Grabber by Cliprex
that does this but it only works on PC's. You run
it and it makes like 100 imge captures from the
video clip and lets you go in and pick the best
ones. Anyone know if there's a Mac equivallent out
there that does this? Right now, the only way I
know to get stills from a QT video is to manually go
through it frame by frame and copy/paste, which is
obviously very time & labor intensive. I would love
to find something that does it for me automatically.
Hello Doug,
My first recommendation is to take a screen shot of your QT movie using not Preview but Snap Pro X. (You already know: you must pause the QT movie before taking the screen shot of the target frame.) Snap Pro X is the equivalent of Image Grabber for Windows machines.
SPX offers a choice of what size image (10% to 400%) you want and where to save the image (which you name in the window provided). I usually take screenshots with this app @ 100% and select "Save to Clipboard" because then you can open the clipboard image in GraphicConverter or PhotoShop Elements or PhotoShop and then set ppi resolution, adjust size or make any of the modification features available with these applications.

Also, I'm not certain but I "think" GraphicConverter can select a single frame from a QT movie. The best little trick is use is to open the clipboard mounted images using one of the "New from Clipboard" menu options. There is now a separate manual in pdf for GC; there've been so many new features added that it's wise to spend the extra money. GC is one of the best deals and best supported-by-author applications you can buy.

Both apps are shareware. Updates are free for GC but I'm not sure about Snap Pro X.

In Lion and Mountain Lion you must save the first time then it will autosave for you with versions.
ForEverSave, a 3rd party application, might actually prompt you after a set period. Check it out and any alternatives.

Simple question. Since apple has extinguished iDVD Are there any other Software programs that can produce the end product iDVD did?

There are many a thousands of people who are producingvideos on completed DVDs. As an amateur videographer using iMovie first nowusing Final Cut pro to produce completed ready to distribute DVDs, I find ithard to believe at the meeting you mentioned anyone with common sense wouldhave explained the scenario above. On an amateur level so many folks have beencreating videos of Weddings, Home Movies, and many different Special Events. Onin particular are sports events. I shoot a sports event like Mix Martial ArtsEvents utilizing several video cameras. Then editing with Final cut Pro andsometimes iMovie. All of my completed videos that have been edited in either ofthese two programs are shared (like hand in glove) with iDVD. Short of steppinginto the commercial world Apple has deleted many people from producing a semiprofessional looking product.
I do not know if the can be answered here in the format buthere it goes!!

Googlesearches with years of outdated info does not give good references.

It doesn't seem there are any programs that takes off fromwhere iDVD left off. My end products (complete videography from start tofinished printed and burned DVD) needs to have the mapping and control usingthe semi professional look iDVD gave!
Have any ssuggestions?

Thank you Klaus 1
I have 4 latest Macs All have iDVD. The question was not where to get iDVD.
The question for anyone who knows is: Since apple has extinguished iDVD Are there any other Software programs that can produce the end product iDVD did?
I appreciate your input but it realy does not answer the question. iDVD will soon not be able to work with newer versions of Macs as it has been left behind by Apple!
Once again:

Imovie cannot do this. More importantly imovie cannot save the project to Video_TS folders like iDVD did.
Anyone have suggestions?

Is there a software program you recommend for saving a DVD on your computer? I guess a nonApple software program is required to do that.

I need to submit my personal video on YouTube as part as a college admissions process. Since the DVD has other videos on it, I need to edit (delete) other parts of video so only the video I want is saved. In the selected video, I also want to delete a few second off the beginning and end.

What is the best software programs that I can use to read, write and modify data / files on external HD (NTFS format i.e. Windows) ?

Hi guys,
I’m new to Mac and have a MacBook Pro Lion OS (10.6.8 I think !!!) with Parallels 7 (Windows 7) installed. Can someone please tell me what is the best software program that I can use to read, write and modify data / files on external HD (NTFS format) from the Mac OS ? I heard of Paragon and Tuxera NTFS. Are they free ? Are they good ? Are there any other software programs out there ? I heard that some people have issues with Paragon.
Thanks.

Your best bet would be to take the drive to the oldest/compatible with that drive Windows PC and grab the files off, right click and format it exFAT (XP users can download exFAT from Microsoft) and then put the files back on.
Mac's can read and write all Windows files formats except write to NTFS (and in some cases not read) so if you can change the format of the drive to exFAT (all data has to be remove first) then you will have a drive that doesn't require paid third party NTFS software (a license fee goes to Microsoft) for updates.
Also it's one less hassle to deal with too.

I have been facing low memory issues and a lot of applications wont work.
Is there a software patch that can detect temporary files and delete them from E72?

How large is your "dmgr" folder?? Mine contains 11 folders, but consumes about 2K of space. (Most folders are empty.) I don't know exactly what these directories do (storage space for Java apps?), but wouldn't recommend deleting anything unless you know what program(s) it would affect and are willing to accept it ceasing to run. (If the Java app is something you installed yourself, better to remove and then reinstall it through the OS.)
Are you sure the "dmgr" folders are the biggest problem? You might have a look at this thread: /t5/Eseries-and-Communicators/E72-RM-530-Phone-memory-full-for-no-apparent-reason-any-solution/m-p/1... and install NetQin Mobile Guard http://www.netqin.com/en/guard/symbian/ to aid in the search. Hope that helps!

Hi Illaass, Oh yes for days and I even called and email some asking this question and no one I could find did all three so I only have to buy one program. The one I was going to download because it did two of them I read the reviews and 2 people said that a hacker was attached to the download and they changed all his search features amoung other things. So I got out of there and that was the end of that. That's why I decided to try this in case someone knows the answer. Thanks for responding though. Sandi

Does anyone know of a software program that speeds up encoding without any

does anyone know of a software program that speeds up encoding within iDVD without any loss of quality?

No. Rendering is the process of compressing your video to a MPEG2 format required by the DVD specification. This process takes time. Hollywood Studios will use render farms to render just a few frames. In terms of iDVD, the only thing that can decrease your rendering time is by getting a faster processor. After that, you could use DVDSP and multiple computers to create your own networked rendering or purchase specific hardware for the MacPro for MPEG encoding. And these rendering cards start at $2,000 last I looked.

It is OSX only and exports PDFs for creating Photoshop layers. The exported PDFs get trashed so if you can use AppleScript I can edit out the Photoshop part post a version that only saves the PDFs

How to create a program that accepts 5 digits from the user between 0 and 9

how to create a program that accepts 5 digits from the user between 0 and 9 then put them in ascending order using link-list method..

You can use a scanner to get user input from the command line.
import java.util.*;
public class Test {
    private List<Integer> list;
    private Scanner in;
    public static void main (String... args) {
        new Test ();
    public Test () {
        list = new LinkedList<Integer> ();
        in = new Scanner (System.in);
        for (int i = 0; i < 5; i ++) {
            System.out.format ("Please enter a number (%d more): ", (5 - i));
            list.add (in.nextInt ());
        Collections.sort(list, new Comparator<Integer> () {
            public int compare (Integer i1, Integer i2) {
                return i2 - i1;
        System.out.println (list);

Is there a program that automatically creates smart playlists

Hi,
I recently had my Itunes music library file damaged/corrupted, hence i lost all my playlists.
Before I spend 4/5 hours recreating my playlists I wondered if anyone knew if there was a program in cyberspace somewhere that would automatically create all my smart playlists by taking the song name/albumn name information from the songs in my itunes library folder?
I hope you can help

What exactly are you looking to create? Smart playlist with what criteria?
It sounds like you want to create album playlists? If so, why? What's wrong with using the browser? ( View..Show Browser)
