What resolution are extracted frames?

Frames are extracted at the video's native resolution. A 1080p video produces 1920x1080 images. A 4K video produces 3840x2160 images.

Can I extract all frames at once?

You can extract multiple frames in a single session. Extracting every frame of a long video would produce thousands of images — select specific frames for practical use.

Why Extract Frames from Video?

Need a thumbnail for your video? A product shot from a demo recording? A still from a presentation? Instead of taking a screenshot (which captures your player UI and may have low resolution), frame extraction pulls the actual video frame at full quality.
