YouTube Screenshot - Full-Resolution Frame Capture

Capture the current frame of any YouTube video with one click, as a file or straight to your clipboard.

Take a screenshot of any YouTube video with one click - at the video's real resolution, not the size of your browser window. A camera button appears in the player controls, right next to the settings and fullscreen buttons. Click it, and the frame showing right now is saved. That's the whole thing. WHY THE RESOLUTION MATTERS Most screenshot tools capture what is on your screen, so a 4K video in a half-width window gives you a small, soft image. This extension reads the frame from the video itself. Play a video at 1080p and you get a 1080p image; play it at 4K and you get 4K — regardless of how large the player is on screen. FEATURES • One-click capture from a camera button built into the player controls • Keyboard shortcut — Alt+Shift+S by default, and you can rebind it • Save to a file, copy to the clipboard, or do both at once • PNG, JPEG or WebP, with a quality setting for the lossy two • Custom filename patterns built from the video title, timestamp, channel, video ID, date and time • Captures at the video's native resolution • Works with the whole player, including theatre mode and fullscreen • Follows your browser's light or dark theme PRIVACY No tracking. No analytics. No ads. No accounts. This extension makes no network requests of any kind. Frames are drawn and encoded entirely inside your browser, and the image never leaves your machine. Your settings are the only thing stored, and they are held in Chrome's own sync storage so they follow your profile.
