I'm looking for a freeware program that will capture and save still
images from video files. Any suggestions?

Beware: VideoLAN might disappear due to patent legislation.

Well, if you click on the link under that text
you come to this page
http://www.videolan.org/patents.html
And it say there
---------------------
The end draws near...

VideoLAN is seriously threatened by software patents due to the numerous
patented techniques it implements and uses. Also threatened are the many
libraries and projects which VLC is built upon, like FFmpeg, and the other
fellow Free And Open Source software multimedia players, which include
MPlayer, xine, Freevo, MythTV, gstreamer.

Multimedia is a patent minefield. All important techniques and formats are
covered by broad and trivial patents that are harming progress and
alternative implementations, such as free software multimedia players.

The European commission has just passed its directive on software patents,
violating democratic rules and procedures to the sole benefit of big
non-European corporation and Ireland and to the detriment of small and
medium sized businesses (which comprise 99% of the European software
industry) and free software.

The European parliament will now be taking the last stand against software
patents in a voting for which an absolute majority is needed. Such a
majority is hard to come by in a parliament with a low attendance level.

But not all is lost yet as long as you decide it is time to make a
difference and take action. This is our last opportunity to fend off
software patents worldwide, there will be no second chance for the
foreseeable future.

Signing petitions will not suffice. Contact your local EU representatives
and educate them why software patents are a bad idea in the first place and
why they must attend that parliament session to vote against them. Make it
clear that they need to stop the machinations of the EU council and
reaffirm the power of the EU parliament, the only democratically elected EU
institution. For in-depth information and starting points to get active
visit the software patent page of the FFII (Foundation for a Free
Information Infrastructure) and NoSoftwarePatents.com.

Wish us luck, we will need it.
