How do I extract images from a MKV video as TIFF?
+
Upload your MKV video. PDF.to pulls frames out at the rate you pick and gives you a ZIP of TIFF stills.
How many frames will I get from the MKV?
+
By default, one frame per second of MKV runtime. The options panel lets you pick every frame, one per 5 seconds, only key-frames, or a custom interval.
What resolution will the extracted TIFF images have?
+
Source resolution. A 1080p MKV produces 1920×1080 TIFF stills; a 4K source produces 3840×2160 stills. Downscale in the options panel if needed.
טעקסט פֿאַרבimage-action
+
Yes. Use the timestamp picker on the upload preview to scrub to the exact moment, then click 'extract this frame as TIFF'.
איז דער ראָם־אַרײַנשרײַב ניט־פֿאַרלאַנגנדיק?
+
Each frame is decoded from the MKV (lossless) and re-encoded as TIFF. If TIFF is lossless (PNG), no quality is lost. If TIFF is JPG, we use high quality (90) by default.
Will the TIFF stills be timestamped or numbered?
+
Yes — file names are zero-padded sequence numbers (TIFF_00001.TIFF, TIFF_00002.TIFF, ...) so they sort correctly. The options panel can also embed the source timecode in EXIF.
Can I make a contact-sheet or thumbnail grid from the MKV?
+
Yes — pick the 'contact sheet' option to get a single TIFF containing a grid of thumbnails, useful for storyboarding or video previews.
How large can my MKV video be?
+
The free plan has a size limit that varies by file type; PRO allows much larger files. Frame extraction is fast even for long videos.
Is the MKV to TIFF extraction free?
+
Yes, within the free size limit. PRO unlocks larger files, higher extraction rates, and parallel processing.
Does PDF.to keep my MKV or extracted TIFF files?
+
No. Both the source MKV and the TIFF output ZIP are deleted within an hour. Conversion runs in an isolated worker.
Can I extract images only from a section of the MKV?
+
Yes. Use the trim controls to set start and end times, and only the selected range produces TIFF frames.
What if my MKV has variable frame rate?
+
We normalize to a constant frame rate internally before extraction, so the TIFF stills are spaced evenly in time regardless of how the source was encoded.
