How do I capture a frame from a video I've taken?

[AC Question]

On my note 4, I was able to go through a video that I'd taken frame by frame and then "capture"one as a photo. This worked wonders when trying to get good pictures of my baby neice. I'd take a video then get WONDERFUL pictures from it. No more barely missing the "perfect" moment. Is there a way to do this from my Note 5? I've not had any luck finding out how. And please don't tell me to take a screenshot. With the camera capturing 30 frames per second, taking a screenshot is NOT the same lol

Looks like your post was moved to the wrong forum... should have been the Note 5 forum.

That said, as you've found out, they removed the frame by frame feature from the Note 5. You might need to find an 3rd party app. You could also drop by the Note 5 forum to look around, as this has been discussed before.

I'm not sure you can anymore with the stock app. It must have been removed with the 5.1.1 update.

Open a video, pause it, step through frame by frame using the left/right arrows to what frame you want to capture, click on the camera icon between the left/right arrows.

Really? I'm still on KK and it's available on my phone. I can't imagine they would remove it on 5.1.1. Unfortunate if true.

I captured a video earlier and I didn't see any way to get a pic from it afterward. When I had KK, I could.

Bummers! To be honest, the screen cap is lower resolution, so maybe that's why they got rid of it. On the other hand, taking stuff away, isn't going to help in the popularity polls! I'm glad I'm locked in to KK!

I guess I didn't even realize it was gone until I saw this thread.

The Note 4 does still offer the capture picture while playing video on 5.1.1 Go to the gallery and pull up your video and hit play video. While you are watching it go to the upper right corner, tap the 3 dots (options) then choose settings and then check capture . Now when you pull up a video while playing just tap at the top of the video while playing and you will see the camera icon near the top of the video. Just hit that to capture a pic. If you want to do screen by screen then pause the video and you should see the camera icon come back up and it will have 2 arrows on either side of it so you can advance frame by frame and capture pics.

Thank you! I guess that's what I get for not checking the settings. Lol
