Convert video frame to QPixmap

[mp_tera]

Hello!

I've been looking around for a while but couldn't find anything simple enough...

Is there a (preferably) simple way to extract and convert a video's frame to a QPixmap (or QImage) for display? I would like to present the user a frame (the first?) from a video to have a preview...

Ideally, I would like something like:

	
QPixmap *pic;
QMovie movie(myFile);
if(movie.isValid())
{
 movie.jumpToFrame(0);
 pic = new QPixmap(movie.currentPixmap());
}

Of course, the code above works only with animated GIF... I would like something similar with real movies (mp4, 3gp, etc.).

Any idea? Or any document I should read?

Many thanks in advance!

Did you check QVideoFrame?

Yes, I did check it but was wondering, before starting to implement my own class, if there is some example available anywhere to study?

Many thanks!

Did you check already the Video Widget example?

Yes, I did... the problem is that the video widget example uses a QMovie:

QMovie movie;

that, as I understand, works only with animated pictures (GIF) rather than real movies

Any other idea, anybody???
