How do I create screenshot previews of videos?
 

I am looking for some software for Ubuntu that can make every x Minutes a screenshot from a video (avi, wmv, mpg...) and create a big preview picture from that. Like the option in media player classic.

Example

Hope this helps

Thanks to both of you. Neither of the suggestions worked but they gave me the right leads and I have now solved the problem.

1) Use videocut (GUI-only), or
2) Use SlickSlice (CLI-only).

Installation:
1) sudo apt-get install videocut, or
2) Go to http://slickslice.sourceforge.net/
2.1) Download ImageMagick and extract
2.2) ./configure
2.3) make
2.4) sudo make install
2.5) if it complain about perl, then write "sudo ln -s libperl.so.5.10 libperl.so" and goto 2.2
2.6) sudo apt-get install mplayer
2.7) Download SlickSlice
2.8) chmod +x slickslice*

Done
