Hi HN,

I built Video to JPG because extracting the perfect frame from a video usually requires scrubbing through timelines manually, which is tedious.

This tool runs entirely in the browser. It uses a hybrid approach: prioritizing the native Canvas API for performance, and falling back to FFmpeg (WASM) for formats that browsers don't natively support (like AVI or MOV). It also includes a blur detection feature to automatically select the sharpest images.

Key features:

Smart Selection: Automatically detects and filters out blurry frames.

100% Private: All processing happens client-side; no video is uploaded.

Format Support: Handles MP4, MOV, AVI, and other common formats.

I'd love to hear your feedback on the detection accuracy!
