Quickest way to frame grab

[Jon B.]

Hi

Looking for a quick path to grab a still off media. Any help? Quick search of forum and I found nothing. Thanks

JB

I don't know if this is the quickest or best way, but I load the clip into Red Alert and export a tiff... takes about 30 seconds.

That be it. Or in RedCine, do a snapshot.

Perfect, thanks

Or open the QT proxy in Quicktime Player. When you found the frame you want, just drag it into the finder.

That way you can also quickly chose the frame size.

Sweet! Never thought of that. The problem with RED alert, is if you just need smaller size grab you have to downsize it in another program, otherwise you can't beat it for a 4K tiff.

I tried apple F. It doesn't seem to work. Any advice?

Julio,
Did you read the integrated Help Pages (specifically "What's new in Clipfinder 2.2") ?
Did you configure "Snapshots" in Clipfinder's preferences ?
If you did and still can't get it to work, let me know.

Cheers,
Hans
