Hi Jacob,
I was suggesting that we could add something to the IDV that could read the 
frames of a .mov file that had been generated by the IDV and write them out as 
jpegs. This would just be a utility method that would enable you to use .mov 
files that you had generated with the IDV in the past.

The current movie capture facility in the IDV allows you to write out each 
frame as a jpeg. In the movie capture dialog check on the "Save Files To" 
checkbox and enter a directory where the IDV will write the jpeg files to.
