Why extract images from a video

Every frame, or one an hour

You decide how dense the sequence is. Ask for 1 to 60 images per second, per minute, per hour, or a fixed number across the whole video.

JPG, and eleven other formats

Frames are saved as JPG unless you say otherwise. PNG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, TIFF, TGA, ICO, SVG, EPS, EXR and WBMP are all offered too.

Only the part you need

Set a start and an end time and the frames are taken from that stretch alone, so a two hour recording does not have to become thousands of images.

Turn a video into an image sequence

Turn your videos into high-quality image sequences with the Convert Video to JPG tool. This free online video to JPG converter lets you extract frames from video files, including MP4, MOV, AVI, and more, and save them as individual JPG images.

Converting videos to JPG is useful for video editors, content creators, designers, and anyone who needs to convert video to image, split MP4 to JPG, or extract frames from video, quickly, easily, and entirely in your browser.

MOV from an iPhone, AVI, WEBM, MKV, WMV and FLV are read the same way as MP4, and you can add several videos at once. Each one is processed with the settings you picked and comes back as its own set of frames.

The whole sequence arrives as one zipped archive, so a hundred frames are still a single download.

A video split into its frames, each frame saved as its own JPG image.

How many images you get is your choice

Image frequency and time unit work as a pair: one image per second is the default, and the same number read per minute, per hour or across the whole video thins the sequence out as far as you need. The frequency itself goes from 1 to 60.

Keyframes only changes the rule instead of the number. Rather than sampling at a fixed interval it takes the frames where the picture actually changes, up to the frequency you set. On an interview or a screen recording that is a far shorter sequence with nothing important missing.

A custom time range narrows the job to one stretch of the video. Start and end are written as HH:MM:SS.MS, for example 00:02:23.005, and either can be left empty to mean the beginning or the end of the file.

All of it sits in the settings panel beside the uploader.

Set how many images to create (1 to 60), per second, per minute, per hour, or for the whole video. Image frequency 1 1 60 Per second Per minute Per hour Of full video

The page opens with 1 image per second selected.

Pick the image format before you start

JPG is the default because it is small, universally supported and what most people mean by a video frame. It is the right answer for a thumbnail, a contact sheet or a still to drop into a document.

PNG and WEBP keep more detail per frame, which matters if the images go back into an editor. GIF, BMP, TIFF, TGA, ICO, SVG, EPS, EXR and WBMP are there for the cases that need them, and the choice applies to every frame in the sequence.

The format is a setting, not a separate app. Switching it does not change anything else about the job you set up.

Choose from 12 image formats to save the frames in. All frames use the selected format (JPG by default). BMP EPS EXR GIF ICO JPG PNG SVG TGA TIFF WBMP WEBP

Free to use, and private by default

Extracting frames is free and needs no account. There is nothing to install either: you can upload from your device, paste a link, or pull the video in from cloud storage.

Every upload and download runs over an encrypted connection, and the work is done on servers in Europe. Processing is fully automated: nobody watches your videos and they are never used to train AI models.

You keep the copyright and the ownership of the video you upload and of every image that comes back.

Questions about converting video to images

How many images will I get?

As many as the frequency you set produces. One image per second of a three minute clip is 180 frames; the same number read per minute is 3. Switch the time unit to the whole video and you get exactly that many images no matter how long the file is.

What image format do the frames come in?

JPG unless you change it. The output format setting also offers PNG, WEBP, GIF, BMP, TIFF, TGA, ICO, SVG, EPS, EXR and WBMP, and it applies to every frame of the sequence.

Can I extract frames from only part of a video?

Yes. Set a custom time range and only that stretch is used. The format is HH:MM:SS.MS, for example 00:02:23.005, and leaving one of the two fields empty means from the start or until the end.

What does the keyframes option do?

It extracts the frames where the picture changes instead of sampling at a fixed interval, up to the frequency you set. On footage that holds still for long stretches it gives you a much shorter sequence without losing the moments that matter.

Which video formats can I upload?

MP4, MOV, AVI, WEBM, MKV, WMV, FLV and the other common video formats. You can also add several videos in one go and each is processed separately.

Does it cost anything?

No. Converting a video to images here is free and does not require an account. A paid plan raises the upload limit and how many files you can process at once.
