To change a movie’s poster frame:
1 In QuickTime Player, drag the playhead (or use the arrow keys to move the playhead) to
the desired frame.
2 Choose View > Set Poster Frame.
To view a movie’s poster frame, choose View > “Go to Poster Frame.”

2 Select the movie name, and then click Presentation.
3 Select the desired options.
4 Save the movie.
Changing the Movie Controller Type
