Captured frame:
About this tool
Video Extract grabs a still image from any point in a video, right in your browser. Scrub the video to the moment you want, capture it, and download the result as a PNG or JPG. Nothing ever leaves your device.
The captured frame comes out at the video's own native resolution, whatever that happens to be, since it's drawn straight from the decoded video frame with no scaling applied. Capturing is a separate step from downloading so you can grab a few different moments and compare them before committing to which one to save.
Frequently asked questions
Should I choose PNG or JPG for the extracted frame?
PNG is lossless, so it preserves the frame exactly with no compression artifacts, at a larger file size. JPG compresses the image down, which is smaller and fine for most everyday sharing, but discards some detail in the process. Pick PNG if you need an exact copy, JPG if file size matters more.
What resolution is the captured frame?
The video's own native resolution -- the frame is drawn straight from the decoded video with no scaling applied, so it comes out exactly as sharp as the source video itself.
Why do I have to click "Capture" before I can download?
Capturing and downloading are separate steps so you can grab a few different moments from the video and compare them on screen before deciding which one to actually save.
What video formats does this accept?
Any video format your browser can play natively -- MP4 and WebM work in every modern browser. If a file won't load, it's likely in a format or codec your specific browser doesn't support decoding.
