MEncoder, no, but you can do it with MPlayer - see '-vo png'. There are
a number of other image-file output formats there as well, but PNG
should probably be sufficient.

(...unless I'm missing something significant about you're trying to do -
which something tells me is the case, but I'm not being able to see what
it might be.)
