Extract First Frame of Movie (Avi, Mpg) or 3rd party resource

I am using Media Player for playing movies (avi, mpeg, mov) in my
..net application.

I would like to show a preview image for each movie
opened by user.

Any simple way for us to get the first frame from an avi/mpg/mov file
and display it as a Bitmap in .NET?

What about 3rd party tools that can do this?

Thanks,

Earl
