Frequently Asked Questions

A video thumbnail is a still image captured from a specific frame of a video. They're used for video previews, social media posts, blog illustrations, or creating storyboards. This tool extracts high-quality frames at precise timestamps without needing video editing software.

All common video formats including MP4, WebM, AVI, MOV, MKV, FLV, and more. The tool uses FFmpeg.wasm which supports virtually all video codecs and containers used today.

Use the video player to scrub through your video and find a compelling moment. Look for clear subjects, good lighting, and avoid motion blur. You can capture multiple frames at different timestamps and choose the best one later.

Choose between PNG (lossless, supports transparency) or JPEG (smaller file size). Resolution options include original quality, 1920x1080 (Full HD), 1280x720 (HD), 640x360 (SD), or custom dimensions. Aspect ratio is preserved automatically.

Yes. Capture as many frames as you need by seeking to different timestamps and clicking the capture button. All thumbnails appear in a grid below where you can download individually or save all as a ZIP archive.

Frame extraction is frame-accurate using FFmpeg. You can specify timestamps down to milliseconds (e.g., 1:23.456) or use the video player's seek controls. The exact frame at that timestamp will be extracted.

Yes. Use the auto-extract feature to capture frames at regular intervals (e.g., every 10 seconds) or at specific percentages of the video duration (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%). Perfect for creating preview galleries.

When using 'Original Resolution' mode, thumbnails match the source video quality. Lower resolutions are downscaled cleanly. JPEG quality is set to 95% for excellent results with smaller file sizes than PNG.

Yes. The tool handles 4K, 1080p, 720p, and any resolution. Note that processing very large videos may take longer and use more memory. For best performance with 4K content, use a desktop browser.

No. All processing happens locally in your browser using WebAssembly. Your video files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and faster processing without internet upload time.
