# Video Frames Extract individual frames or thumbnails from video files using ffmpeg, with support for timestamp-based extraction and multiple output formats. Video Frames lets you pull single frames from any video file using ffmpeg. You can extract the first frame for a quick thumbnail or specify an exact timestamp to capture a specific moment. Output supports both JPG (for quick sharing) and PNG (for crisp UI screenshots). ## How It Works The skill provides a shell script that wraps ffmpeg commands. You point it at a video file, optionally specify a timestamp with --time, and choose an output path with --out. The script handles the ffmpeg invocation and outputs the extracted frame in your chosen format. ## Key Features Single frame extraction — Pull the first frame from any video with one commandTimestamp targeting — Use --time to extract a frame at a specific point in the videoMultiple output formats — Save as JPG for quick sharing or PNG for pixel-perfect UI captures ## Requirements ffmpeg — Required binary for video processing. Install via your system package manager (e.g., Homebrew on macOS) ## Use Cases Quick video thumbnails — Generate a thumbnail image from any video file for previewsUI screenshot capture — Extract crisp PNG frames from screen recordings for documentationVideo inspection — Check what's happening at a specific timestamp without opening a video player ## Installation Install via: `npx clawhub@latest install video-frames`
