What is Extract Video Frames?

Extract individual PNG frames from any video file. See the total frame count before extracting, choose exactly how many frames to pull (evenly spaced or at a fixed time interval), then download all frames as a ZIP or save them one by one.

How It Works

The video is loaded in your browser to read duration. FFmpeg WebAssembly probes the file to detect the frame rate and calculate the exact total frame count. You then choose your extraction mode — fixed count or fixed interval — and FFmpeg extracts the frames as lossless PNG images. All processing is local; nothing is uploaded.

How to Use

  1. 1

    Upload your video

    Drop or browse to an MP4, MOV, MKV, AVI, or WebM file. The tool shows duration, frame rate, and total frame count.

  2. 2

    Choose extraction mode

    Pick "Total Frames" to extract a fixed number of evenly-spaced frames, or "Every N Seconds" to extract at a fixed time interval.

  3. 3

    Set the count or interval

    Use the slider or presets to choose how many frames to extract. A summary shows exactly how many frames you will get.

  4. 4

    Click Extract Frames

    FFmpeg processes the video locally and generates each frame as a PNG image.

  5. 5

    Download

    Click "Download ZIP" to get all frames at once, or hover any thumbnail to download that frame individually.
