Frequently asked questions
Is my video uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser using your own device. Your video never leaves your computer or phone.
Is the image full quality?
Yes. It is decoded straight from the video at its full resolution, unlike a screenshot of a player.
Which format should I choose?
PNG for perfect quality, JPG for a smaller file, WebP for the web.
Can I save many frames at once?
Yes. Use the Video to Image Sequence tool to export frames at regular intervals as a ZIP.
Which browsers are supported?
Recent Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari (16.4+). The tool uses WebCodecs, your browser's built-in video encoder, and tells you if something isn't supported.
