This works for me:

ffmpeg -i input_movie.mp4 -ss 00:00:05 -f image2 -vframes 1 imagename.png

Where the options are:

-i              > The input video file

-ss  00:00:05   > Start at Second 5 of movie

-f image2       > Force image output

-vframes 1      > Set the number of video frames to record
