#27 ffmpeg function getFrame() not working properly

[Junaid Jameel Ahmad]

Hello,
I have coded a script that makes thumnails of a video.
here is my code

10) $mov = new ffmpeg_movie($videospath);
11) $duration = round($mov->getDuration(),0).'s';
12) $height = $mov->getFrameHeight();
13) $width = $mov->getFrameWidth();
14) $image = imagecreatetruecolor($width,$height);
15) $frame = new ffmpeg_frame($image);
16) print is_object($frame)." obj1 ";
17) $frame = $mov->getFrame(1);
18) print is_object($frame)." obj2 ";
19) $image = $frame->toGDImage();
20) @imagejpeg($image, $videospath.$vid.'.jpg', 100);

This code works fine for some movies and makes the
thumbnail image but for some movies it did not make
thumnails and give the following error.

1 obj1 obj2
Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object
in /home/iideshow/public_html/inc/makeVideoPics.php on
line 19

In try to debug the error I add two extra statements
in my code on lines 16 and 18 and u can see in the
output before the calling of function
$mov->getFrame(1); on line 17 the frame object exists
but on line 18 it is not.

Can any one guid me wht's the problem here.
Remember it works on some videos but on most of the
videos it did not.

waiting for your help.
Thanks
Junaid

It, so far, has worked for me on all videos. It's just a matter of maxing out the frame. On some videos, the max frame I can grab is 4544, on others, it's different.
