You should be able to extract frames using PlayMovieAction on mp4 movies. Review the docs and especially the open keyword (if memory serves, I am on an iPad currently.)

Subject: Extracting frames from movies in Igor

Hello Everyone,

I knew this day was coming, but was hoping there would be a solution before it happened. I have for a long time used Igor?s PlayMovie and PlayMovieAction commands to load, play and extract frames from QuickTime movies in .mov or .mp4 formats. I haven?t used it for a little bit, but now when I try, I get an error message saying this feature is no longer supported by my OS.

The question is, is there currently any way to open, play and extract frames from .mp4, .mov or .avi movie files in Igor ??? Some simple searches haven?t yielded anything.

Igor Pro 8.04
Mac OS X 10.14.6

Thanks in advance,

Dan
