Convert MOV to JPEG
What is MOV?
MOV
MOV video consists of thousands of sequential frames—each frame is a complete image. Image formats represent single static moments. Extracting images from MOV means selecting specific frames from the temporal sequence, whether keyframes for quality or arbitrary frames for thumbnails. This is frame extraction from continuous motion data.
- MOV stores sequential frames at 24-60fps, enabling frame extraction as images
- Frame rate (24-60fps) means hundreds of images extractable per second
- Each frame at video resolution (720p-4K) becomes individual JPEG image
What is JPEG?
JPEG
JPEG stores a single static image frame using lossy compression. Video requires thousands of frames per second plus synchronized audio. One image is one frozen moment—creating video from a single JPEG would produce a static slideshow, not true motion video. You need sequences of images to create video content.
- JPEG stores static single-frame images, requiring frame sequencing for video creation
- DCT-based compression removes high-frequency visual data
- Single static frame—video requires frame duplication or sequencing
