Use a video editor and break the video up into slides and save the image you want. If you have it, use Windows movie editor.

I use Media Player Classic to play my videos anyways. It can take a snapshot with a single keypress. No editing, no splicing, just pause on the frame you want and hit F5. The "Save thumbnails..." command is also neat. It takes a snapshot every X seconds and then turns them into a single BMP or JPG collage. You set the total image width and the number of snapshots and it snaps at even intervals that vary depending on the total run time of the video. Great fun for free :)
