Thank you for your answer.
The console eventually reads
More than 1000 frames duplicated
[ipod @ 00000299cb43de80] Got more than one picture in stream 0, ignoring.
when I call your command as is.
When I dump the images as individual jpg files, I see it's the same
image over and over again.
I searched the internet and found a posting on StackOverflow that
suggested to use filter mpdecimate:

Final command line that gives no warnings looks like:
ffmpeg.exe -y -i "e:\01. Video.mp4" -filter:v
"select=between(145\,prev_pts*TB\,pts*TB),trim=end_frame=1,mpdecimate,setpts=N/FRAME_RATE/TB"
-c:a copy -c:v mjpeg -q:v 2 -disposition:v:0 attached_pic "e:\01.
Audio.m4a"
