Anyone knows the trick?
And how to install ffmpeg ? yum install mpeg only returns this:
======================================================================================== Matched: mpeg ========================================================================================
libiec61883.i386 : Streaming library for IEEE1394
libiec61883.x86_64 : Streaming library for IEEE1394
qffmpeg-devel.i386 : Development package for qffmpeg
qffmpeg-devel.x86_64 : Development package for qffmpeg
qffmpeg-libs.i386 : Libraries for qffmpeg

It's on the manpage:
* You can extract images from a video, or create a video from many
images:
For extracting images from a video:
ffmpeg -i foo.avi -r 1 -s WxH -f image2 foo-%03d.jpeg
This will extract one video frame per second from the video and will
output them in files named foo-001.jpeg, foo-002.jpeg, etc. Images
will be rescaled to fit the new WxH values.
If you want to extract just a limited number of frames, you can use
the above command in combination with the -vframes or -t option, or in
combination with -ss to start extracting from a certain point in time.
But of course you have to install it first. I'm on Debian and don't use yum.
[update for the other question]
i=1
for avi in *.avi; do
ffmpeg -i $avi -vframes 1 -f image2 /tmp/$i.jpg; i=$((i+1))
done
Tested and works.
[update for yet another question...]
for flv in *.flv; do
ffmpeg -i $flv -vframes 1 -f image2 ${flv%%.flv}.jpg
done
