You may find the above two freeware have their own drawbacks, such as the requirements for the version of Windows Media Player and OS. And the second one seems a little complicated.
More importantly is that both of them can't convert WMV to other file formats, which means you still can't play it in any media player even if the DRM protection has been stripped. So after searching and testing, I finally find out a reliable and powerful tool for you.
It's imElfin Video Converter for Win which can not only remove DRM from WMV files but also convert them into formats and support popular devices like apple devices and mobile phones. Besides, it also owns awesome editing features, including trimming, cropping, rotating, adding watermark and converting 2D to 3D. You can download it for 30 days free trial. The most important part is step 4, turning on the scene filter. At least if you do that, some images should be saved using the VLC defaults.
You could always try the portable version from portableapps. Perhaps you could answer this question, what would you find more helpful. A separate little tool to sort these settings for you without opening VLC or a dedicated video on how to use the settings in VLC itself? Thank you so much. Can I exract image from video with the same properties as video like from which camera the video was taken and focal length etc. Open the video file and bang your images will appear.
The one gotcha I found was it will overwrite the save images with each new video you play. So before I play my next video I rename each image file. Option one saved me lots of work on Premier! Just set the computer working and a couple of days later I had a huge folder of images. Used an astronomy program called PIPP to stitch them all together into a movie for a client.
They loved it. You can use video-photos. No software needs to be downloaded for this. This tool is really useful, super simple and easy to use, no need to install anything and work instantly. Kudos for you.. Thanks for the quick reminder. I had forgotten how I did it years ago. VirtualDub is so simple to use and so quick. You are not quite following the steps correctly.
Where is the default folder where it starts saving the images too? For step 4, is that just hitting save in the same Scene Filters window where you enter the file type, save directory, and ratio? There will be a number of checkboxes on the right, check the Scene video filter box near the top right and press Save. Then re-open VLC and play the video. I also followed the VLC method to a tee and it did not work… It looks like its writing files somewhere because of how slow its going but when I look in the output folder…nothing.
After turning on the scene filter step 4 close VLC and reopen it before playing the video. I had to do that when testing just now or the images were not being saved. First I had to write a bit a code and extract the duration of the video. I converted that into seconds and divided it by the number of shots I want to get my intervals. I also made a script that takes those intervals and takes the snap shot of the media at a fixed time.
The solution takes a lot longer than video to jpg converter. The information you have provided for VLC must be very, very old. The only option is to simply check the Scene Filter box.
Also please be aware that Virtual Dub, which used to be very useful, is now filled with adware and malware. I had to remove it from my computer and it was hard to get rid of all the stuff they had installed without my permission. The information is up to date and I can follow the instructions with the latest VLC without any issue. You are obviously not following correctly. The window for the scene video filter shown in the image above is in VLC 2.
If you have a version of VirtualDub with adware, you did not download it from the SourceForge link provided. The real program contains no adware or malicious code of any kind and is open source and portable. Please recheck your sources. Took me a while to find the typo in the command line version of the vlc. It turns out that cutting and pasting the text provided above results in some very mysterious errors.
The reason is that the quotation marks in the web page are some unicode smart quotes not unix worthy ascii quotation marks. It runs on Javascript, so no uploading is required. I am a cofounder of anyframe. We support youtube videos and your own videos.
List of supported formats is growing. Our tool runs in cloud with no installation needed. Thank you for your wonderful knowledge sharing. I just started take video shots using this technique successfully. Hello, thank you very much for the very helpful tutorial! I tried to do this with VirtualDub, but sadly got a problem. Thank you very much for the great instructions. I ask, because it looks like I would need to pay for a converter as the free ones either have watermarks or run out of free minutes.
Quote from: Peter99 on January 14, , PM Do you think that converting the wmv to an mp4 file before putting it into Avidemux would mean a better quality final edit No, definitely not as you will be restricted to keyframes for cut points as I already mentioned. The visual quality entirely depends on properties of the source video and on encoder settings.
Quote from: Peter99 on January 14, , PM I ask, because it looks like I would need to pay for a converter as the free ones either have watermarks or run out of free minutes. I am just speechless as all the best are not only free but purely open source. Apart from that, you don't need external tools for this task. So, if I understand right, this means with a wmv file I will put it into Avidemux as it is, so I can edit between key frames, then convert to Mpeg4 as I save it.
For my ram files, I believe that I will need to convert them to get them into Avidemux. I would like to be able to edit these between key frames too. Will any of these allow Avidemux to edit between key frames? I understand of course that of these MP4 won't.
It doesn't contain any audio or other multimedia content. I am not sure that you mean exactly ram files here. What is the task, not the means? To capture an internet broadcast? Are there really any broadcasts using RealMedia? I believed it was dead since ages To ask in a "task" way as you suggest: what must I do to be able to edit non-wmv video files between key frames? I am thinking I should convert them first so that is possible, but I don't know what I should convert them to.

I am not sure what you mean by "between key frames".
