Yes, you can extract single images from a video. The package uses the avformat and avcodec libraries from ffmpeg and it provides rather low level access to video/audio files. You can access the individual streams in a file, obtain the stream data and decode the data therein. What you do with the data is up to your application. Converting the file into another format is just one such application. - Matthias - -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
