CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET staff on February 08, 2010
Image by Image seems simple enough. True to its name, the purpose of the program is to allow users to view AVI and WMV files image by image, or frame by frame. Such a program has the potential to be very useful, but unfortunately, Image by Image is more confusing than useful.
The program's interface is plain, a basic media viewer with four buttons at the top. The Open button is pretty straightforward, and we opened a video with the program easily enough. The next button lets users alternate between normal speed and "image by image," and we'd assume that this is the program's main feature, but it didn't seem to work. Videos played fine at normal speed, but when we clicked Image by Image the program only seemed to display the video's final frame. Another button labeled Set Position brought up a box into which users could enter numbers for hour, minute, and second, but it was never clear what we were actually setting the position for, or how this interacted with the rest of the program. Finally, the About button gave us a glimmer of hope that there might be a Help file that would explain this unintuitive mess, but no such luck. The only instructions for the program's use are contained in the publisher's description, and you can see for yourself how much sense that makes. Overall, we were confused and highly unimpressed with Image by Image.
Image by Image is free, which is really the only thing it has going for it. The program comes as a zip file and runs after extraction with no need for installation. We do not recommend this program.
Publisher's description
From Patrice Zwenger :Video player to view video image by image (AVI and WMV). It works good if the Speed Play menu (Fast, Normal, Slow) are enabled (see contextual menu). For all video files, you can set with precision the position in the video stream (Set Position... button). For a capture of image in a video, right-click for contextual menu access, select Options, click on the Performance tab and slide the Video Performance - Hardware Acceleration tab down, all the way to none. Reset the video parameters after the capture. This program requires the Windows Media Player 9 and later.
Version 1.1.3079 added a time counter (with centiseconds) and Video Position options.
