How do I extract frames from a MP4 video as PNG images?
+
Upload the MP4 file and the converter exposes a frame picker: every Nth frame, frames at explicit timestamps, or one frame per second. Each chosen frame is encoded as a separate PNG file and bundled as a ZIP for download.
所提取的 `PNG图像在什么分辨率上出来?
+
Same pixel dimensions as the source MP4 — a 1080p video produces 1920x1080 PNG frames, a 4K source produces 3840x2160 PNG frames. Resize after extraction if you need smaller thumbnails (we have a /image-resize/ tool for that).
The MP4 container does not store per-frame EXIF the way a still camera does, so the PNG files come out with empty EXIF. We embed a `creation_time` field pointing at the source frame timestamp so you can re-sort the bundle chronologically.
How long does frame extraction from MP4 to PNG take?
+
Frame extraction is fast — typically 20-30% of source duration on the standard pipeline. A 5-minute MP4 -> PNG bundle finishes in about 1 minute regardless of frame count, because the bottleneck is the PNG encoder not the demuxer.
Can I extract frames at specific timestamps in the MP4?
Almost always motion blur from the source MP4 — the camera was moving when the frame was captured. Try picking timestamps from static scenes, or extract several adjacent frames and choose the sharpest. The pipeline does not synthesize sharpness.
Yes, subject to whatever licence governs the source MP4 content. The format change adds no claim — we apply no watermark, embed no tracking, and claim no licence on the PNG output.
