I am a big fan of aforge

C#

AVIReader reader2 = new AVIReader();
System.Drawing.Bitmap[] readArray = new System.Drawing.Bitmap[10000];
//Write the code below under a button etc

            reader3.Open(@"E:\myvideo.avi");//file path

            int count = reader3.Length - 1;

            for (int i = 0; i < reader3.Length - 1; i++)//iterate through each frame
            {
                readArray[i] = reader3.GetNextFrame();
                pictureBox2.Image = (System.Drawing.Image)readArray[i];
                pictureBox2.Refresh();
            }
            totalFrames = reader3.Length - 1;

            reader.Close();
