About this tool

Pull still images out of a video for thumbnails, contact sheets, reference photos, or machine-learning datasets. Choose how many frames per second to keep and the tool writes numbered JPGs at the video's full resolution, ready to download individually or as a ZIP. Trim the video first to limit the range.

How to use it

  1. Drop your MP4, MOV, WebM or MKV file into the box above, or click to browse. Nothing is uploaded.
  2. Adjust the options if you want; the defaults suit most files.
  3. Click the button and wait a moment.
  4. Download the result.

Questions

How do I get one specific frame?

Trim the video to a second around the moment, then extract every frame and pick the one you want.

Why JPG and not PNG?

Video frames are already lossy, and JPG keeps hundreds of frames manageable. Each is saved at high quality.

Is it free, are files uploaded, which browsers work: the general questions are answered once for the whole site.
