Add ability to extract frames from YouTube video via URL

Xavier Rabilloud (Énergie Partagée)

Hello,

It would be really useful to add the possibility that the user pastes the URL of any YouTube (or Vimeo) video, so that we may easily extract any frame (in best resolution available) of any YT video.

Re-opening, so this request is not duplicated in the future.

Hi Xavier,
You need to first download the YT video yourself.

Krzysztof Szularz: well, yes I do understand this. This is why I put forward a feature request, so that as a user one may extract frames directly, without the burden of first having to download the video oneself :-)

Xavier Rabilloud (Énergie Partagée): I will not be able to provide this feature in this service, unfortunately. YT terms of service do not allow for content download in any form other than normal use of their service.

Krzysztof Szularz: ok, I understand. Thanks for your reply and for having checked.
