How do I specify the output location for the frames?

You can use the --out flag followed by your desired file path to define exactly where the extracted image should be saved.

Is this skill suitable for batch processing?

While the core skill focuses on single frame extraction, it can be called programmatically via Claude Code scripts to automate batch thumbnail generation.

What dependencies are required for this skill?

This skill requires ffmpeg to be installed on your system. It includes a built-in installation step for users on macOS using Homebrew.

What file formats does the Video Frame Extractor support?

It can output frames in various image formats; .jpg is recommended for quick sharing, while .png is recommended for high-quality UI captures.

Can I extract a frame from a specific timestamp?
