Show HN: Turn Your Videos into Screenshots
video2screenshot.comHey HN, I wanted to get some screenshots out of my video but it was such a hassle, so I created an app for it.
It's a web app that runs in the browser. You can mark the timestamps, set a gradient background to look nicer and then export.
It's free and everything happens locally, so it's privacy friendly.
Give it a go an let me know what you think! I don’t think I am your intended user, but can you elaborate on what the scenario is where pausing and screenshotting (space, cmd+shift+3) is more of a hassle than the three-step process described on the landing page? If you want to take more than 3 screenshots then this would be faster. Usually you would have to stop the video and select the screenshot area. Plus I'd like them to look a bit nicer than a normal screenshot. The purpose I made this was to create additional content from videos (blogs, social media posts). So, I plan to add some additional stuff like export to .webp to optimize size or different aspect ratios.
