Extract all frames of your movie into high-resolution pictures!
Attention: for higher picture quality, constant extraction efficiency, and other productivity features, please consider our commercial version named preCut Pro.
Still, using snapshots or screen captures to obtain a single frame image of a movie? Tired of fast-forwarding, rewinding, and rewinding some more, but still cannot find the frame you want? Then movie2picture is just the one you need.
Drag and drop a video file to movie2picture, which will find the highest possible resolution images for you.
After you set up the resolution and a destination folder, your movie or video file will be extracted into pictures without losing a single frame.
*For reverse engineering, generating a movie from pictures, please consider apps named "picture2movie" and "photo2movie", there is also a free app called "photo2movie FREE".
