Lossless extracting of JPEGs from an MJPEG video?

Using the Timelapse app on my Sony NEX-6 camera, I get an AVI which contains an MJPEG stream.However, I'd like to take all the individual frames into Lightroom as normal photos, to do my post-processing. Is there a way to extract the individual JPEG frames in a lossless fashion, e.g. *without resaving them*? As I understand it, MJPEG format is essentially just a lot of JPEG files contained within (in this case) an AVI container.I would prefer to do this on a Mac (I normally use Lightroom and Photoshop), but any application that does it would be fine, I'll find an OS to run it!
