    Scott Thomas posted something similar to this about a month ago with no responses:

    Is there any way to import and export frames in Photoshop (via plugins or whatever) and not have to use the live desktop or use FCP to do frame grabs?

    If you open the file in Quicktime, you can copy and paste into Photoshop. Only bummer is it can be tricky scrubbing through long movies. But you can right arrow, left arrow scrub when you get close. When you paste, it actually keeps both fields, so you can de-interlace in Photoshop.

    That’s a good tip, although I was looking more for something like I had on my old Digital Voodoo D1 card, where I could hit an F-key and grab a frame from an incoming live D1 signal; or, if I wanted to send an image to the Kona, punch it up on my D1 switcher, and not have to worry about stray cursors or windows on the “second” desktop. The Voodoo had PS Import and Export filters for this.

    Granted, this is a lot more useful in an online suite, but that’s where I spend a lot of time.
