Frequently Asked Questions

Which video formats are supported?

The tool supports any video format that your browser can play, including MP4, WebM and MOV.

MP4 with H.264 has the widest browser support.

AVI, MKV and other formats may work depending on your browser and operating system.

What extraction modes are available?

Current Frame captures a single frame at the current video player position.

Every N seconds extracts one frame every N seconds throughout the entire video.

N evenly-spaced frames divides the video into equal intervals and extracts one frame per interval.

What image formats can I save frames as?

PNG provides lossless quality and supports transparency.

JPEG produces smaller files suitable for photographs.

WebP offers the best compression for web use and is supported by all modern browsers.

How many frames can I extract at once?

Using the count mode, you can extract up to 100 frames in a single operation.

Using the interval mode, the number of frames depends on the video duration and interval.

Extracting large numbers of frames may take some time depending on video length.

Can I extract frames from a specific time range?

Use the video player controls to navigate to any position in the video.

Select the Current Frame mode to capture a single frame at the exact playback position.

For a range, trim the video first using our Video Clipper tool, then extract frames.

At what resolution are frames extracted?

Frames are extracted at the original video resolution using the Canvas API.

A 1920x1080 video will produce 1920x1080 frame images.

Resolution cannot be changed during extraction — use an image resizer after if needed.

Does this tool work on mobile?

Yes, the tool works on modern mobile browsers.

Video seeking and canvas capture work on iOS Safari and Chrome for Android.

Large videos may load more slowly on mobile due to device memory constraints.

Is my video data private?

Completely private. Your video never leaves your device.

All frame extraction uses the HTML5 video element and Canvas API in your browser.

No data is transmitted to any server.
