Video Frame Extractor — free online tool
Video Frame Extractor runs entirely through temporary, in-memory processing: your file is uploaded, processed with FFmpeg, streamed back to you, and deleted immediately — nothing is stored permanently.

How it works
How frame extraction works
Video Frame Extractor samples still frames from your video at a chosen rate (e.g. one frame per second) and packages them as PNG images in a downloadable ZIP archive.
Common uses
Useful for pulling thumbnails, creating a contact sheet, or getting a specific still image out of a video without needing video-editing software.
Limitations
Uploads are capped in size for reliable processing, and only MP4, MOV, WEBM, MKV files are accepted here. For very large files or advanced editing needs, dedicated desktop software may work better.
Frequently asked questions
How many frames will I get?
Based on your chosen sample rate and the clip's length, capped at 30 frames per run to keep the download a reasonable size.
What format are the frames?
PNG images, packaged together in a single ZIP file for download.
