Frequently asked questions
- How does the interval work?
- Choose how often to grab a frame — every 1, 2, 5, or 10 seconds. A 30-second video with a 2-second interval extracts about 15 frames.
- JPG or PNG — which should I pick?
- JPG for smaller files, ideal for most video frames. PNG if you need a lossless copy or the frame has sharp text/graphics where JPG compression artifacts would show.
- What video formats can I use?
- Any format your browser can decode — MP4, WebM, MOV, and MKV all work in most current browsers.
- Is my video uploaded anywhere?
- No — frames are extracted and rendered entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded.
How GetByteRush compares
Most free tools for this online work the same way: you upload your file to their server, wait, then download the result — which means your file (and often your email, for a "free" account) sits on someone else's infrastructure. Here's the actual difference:
| Feature | GetByteRush | Typical online tools |
|---|---|---|
| Data ever leaves your device | No — extracted in this tab | Yes, uploaded to process |
| Download all frames as one ZIP | Yes | Varies — some tools only offer one at a time |
| Account required | Never | Often, past a certain usage level |
