Make screenshots of videos

You can use the browser’s screenshot tool, to capture the content on web pages. But if that content is a point in a video, then saving a frame from it directly is faster and gives you a better result than trying to draw a frame around the capture area.

To save a frame from a video as an image file:

  1. Play the video and pause it at the point that you want to grab a screenshot of.
  2. Right-click (in some cases double right-click) on the video to open the context menu.
  3. Select Save Video Frame As.
  4. Select the saved file’s destination folder.
  5. Click Save.

In addition to saving a frame as an image on your computer, you can also just copy it.
