Capturing frames of ASX / MMS stream with MPlayer

January 20th, 2010 No comments

This will allow you to capture a single frame from a ASX / ASF / MMS stream. Be aware if the ASX contains more than 1 file, you will get more than 1 screen capture. Also remember to use the playlist option for ASX streams

mplayer -playlist http://xxxxx -ss 1 -frames 1 -vo jpeg

When building mplayer you will need libjpeg – do mplayer -vo help to list available output options.
