Canonical page: https://www.socialfaktory.com/tools/video-frame-extractor

Turn any video into still images in your browser. Pick an interval and a format, then download single frames or everything as a ZIP. Free, private, and your video never leaves your device.

## How it works

1. **Load a video**: Pick any video file. It opens locally in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
2. **Choose interval and format**: Extract a frame every 0.5, 1, 2, 5 or 10 seconds, as PNG for lossless quality or JPEG for smaller files.
3. **Download your frames**: Click any frame to save it, or download the whole set as a single ZIP with timestamped file names.

## What you get

- 100% private. The video is processed locally and never uploaded to a server.
- Frames are captured at the video's native resolution, not a scaled-down preview.
- Clean file names with frame number and timestamp, like frame_0012_0m11s.png.
- One-click ZIP download, up to 500 frames per run.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I extract frames from a video without installing software?

Load your video on this page, pick how often you want a frame, and press Extract. Your browser decodes the video and captures the stills locally. Nothing is installed and nothing is uploaded.

### Is the extraction really private?

Yes. The whole process runs in your browser using a canvas. The file never leaves your device, and closing the tab removes everything.

### What resolution are the extracted frames?

Frames are captured at the video's native resolution. A 1080p video produces 1920x1080 stills, whether you choose PNG or JPEG.

### Why is there a 500 frame limit?

Each frame is held in your browser's memory, so very long videos at short intervals would slow your device down. Pick a larger interval to cover a longer video within the limit.
