Clean video stills from a mobile file
Android screenshot controls are quick, but a screenshot can include overlays and only captures the displayed player size. Direct extraction uses the decoded video frame and exports it as a new image file.
Chrome codec support varies by device. Standard H.264 MP4 and many WebM files are the safest choices, while unusual camera or editing codecs may not preview.

Android extraction tips
Use focused batches
A few exact timestamps are more reliable than hundreds of frames.
Choose JPG for smaller downloads
Camera footage usually compresses well.
Keep the tab visible
Android may suspend heavy work when switching applications.
Reduce frame width
A 1280 or 1920 pixel cap can lower memory use.
