After looking at that video, I can't for the life of me understand why it is
so important, even if it is for the most ardent conspiracy theorist. Having
said that, here is your answer direct from the FAQ page for mplayer:
"how do i extract frames from videos? how do i make thumbnails from videos?
how do i make a gallery of images from a movie?
* mplayer -vo jpeg -sstep 30 -frames 10 yourfile
* add -vf scale=320:240 if you want smaller image size...
* use -vf framestep if sstep does not work on your source.
also check out this howto for using ffmpeg or mencoder to create
movies http://electron.mit.edu/~gsteele/ffmpeg/ "
