So I recently imported a bunch of movies into my iTunes and quickly found out, I had a problem:

As you can see, iTunes automatically picked the “Poster Frame” for all my imported movies.  The poster frame is the video frame iTune automatically chooses to display the movie thumbnails when sorted in the grid view mode.  The problem is that the poster frame was the same for each movie. Instead, I’d like it to be the title frame so I can quickly identify the title of the movie before playing it. So the question is of course, how do you change the poster frame to be the title frame of my imported movie?

You can do this easily in 3 steps:

1) Click play

2) Pause the movie at the precise frame or time you desire

3) Right click on the movie and choose “Set Poster Frame”

4) Done!

You can return to the library, to see the updated thumbnail of your movie!
