If so you can pause the vid on the image you want then do a print screen (shift/command/4). It then comes up as a screenshot on the desktop. Open the screenshot in preview and crop it to what you want and then save.. Sounds a bit involved but it's easy peasy quick

If you can't view the vid on your mac, play it on the device you can view it on, pause and take a pic with your digital camera or phone. Transfer it to your mac and play with it.. enjoy
