Extract frames ​

  • Category: Middleware

What it is ​

Extracts still frames from a video for image import, probing or shot search.

This node grew out of the related Lab tools: wires in a blueprint replace the step-by-step clicks in the Lab, which makes it easy to reuse and to hand to an agent.
