Frequently Asked Questions

Can I extract frames from long videos?

Yes, as long as your browser has enough RAM to load the video. We recommend files up to 500MB for optimal performance.

In what resolution are the captures saved?

Captures are made at the original video's native resolution. If your video is 4K, you will get a high-quality 4K image.

Resolution and Frame Rate

Technical
The final frame resolution depends on the original video. If the video is 4K (3840x2160), you will extract 4K frames. If it is 720p, you will get 720p. No smart upscaling: we preserve the video's native information.
Frame
Individual image in a video sequence. A 24 fps video contains 24 frames per second.
FPS (Frames Per Second)
Frames per second. 24 fps (cinema), 30 fps (web video), 60 fps (smooth video), 120 fps (super slow-mo).
Video Codec
Compression algorithm: H.264 (MPEG-4), VP9 (WebM), HEVC. Determines file size and quality.
Bitrate
Amount of data processed per second (Mbps). Higher bitrate = higher quality but larger files.
Video Resolution
Pixel dimensions: 720p (1280x720), 1080p (1920x1080), 4K (3840x2160), 8K (7680x4320).
Professional Frame Extraction
You don't need complex online converters or professional software. A perfect frame is just 3 clicks away: upload video, navigate, capture. Total privacy, native resolution, instant download.
