Need a cover image or thumbnail for a MOV video? This page grabs the first frame and saves it as a single PNG preview you can drop into a catalog, chat, or website.
How to make a MOV preview
- Upload a QuickTime MOV file up to 80 MB.
- Press Convert file.
- Download the PNG preview image.
What you get
One PNG showing the first frame of your video, capped at 640 pixels wide so it loads fast in browsers. Small videos keep their original size, and the aspect ratio is preserved.
When this helps
- Adding a thumbnail next to a video in a file list or CMS
- Sharing a quick visual of a clip without sending the video
- Creating cover images for video galleries or portfolios
What this does not do
- It does not extract audio or subtitles
- It does not convert the video itself
- It does not pick a busy mid-video frame — the preview is always the first frame
