yoFrame

Extract the latest frame from MP4 videos as a command-line tool. This utility allows you to easily extract the final frame of any MP4 video and save it as a PNG image with a unique filename.

Installation

To install globally and use as a command-line tool:

npm install -g @voyo/video-last-frame

Usage

After installation, you can use the command-line interface:

yoFrame <video-file-path>

For example:

yoFrame ./my-video.mp4

This will create a PNG image named my-video[8-digit-random-number].png in the same directory as the input video.

Features

• Extracts the last frame of an MP4 video
• Outputs as high-quality PNG format
• Generates unique filenames with 8-digit random numbers to prevent conflicts
• Provides detailed feedback during processing
• Cross-platform compatibility

How It Works

yoFrame uses ffmpeg and ffprobe under the hood to:

1. Analyze the video to determine its duration
2. Seek to the last frame of the video
3. Extract that frame as a PNG image
4. Save it with a unique filename
