6. Open Irfanview

7. From the File -> Open menu, open the video (remember to select "All files (*.*) on the File Type list)


8. When you want to create a picture, stop the video

9. Click with right button of the mouse on the video image and select "Copy"



10. Select Edit - Paste

11. Select File - Save As, choose "JPG - JPEG files" from the file type list and give a name to that file.

That's all!
