Copy frame from video feature

Does Vivaldi have copy frame from video feature? I don't see it in context menu when I right clicking two times on a Youtube video.

@MintyMisoPaste See this feature request:

A Snapshot from a Video being watched on YouTube.

Vivaldi has a built-in snapshot tool that you can use.

The built-in snapshot tool uses the resolution of the screen. Moreover, there is no way to easily remove the UI from YouTube player when paused.

"Copy frame from video" grabs the original frame in its original resolution.

If you play the video in a PiP window, there is no UI to remove. Just press Printscreen and crop the image in your favourite image editor. I use FastStone Capture to crop the area that I want to capture before saving the image.

Maybe Vivaldi will implement this feature one day — it does not seem to be something that would be difficult — but with over 5,200 feature requests, it is not a high priority. The linked request currently has zero votes.

It is still not the original frame, but now it's even smaller than the screen resolution.

This feature is from Chromium, it's about feature parity with the original project.

@CJMAXiK You clearly don’t understand how features are implemented in Vivaldi. It is not that long since we got PiP video in Vivaldi. Just because a feature exists in Chromium does not mean that it automatically appears in Vivaldi.

If it is important to you, download the video and use VLC player or another program to extract the video frame.

Unfortunately, it will be way easier to just stick with Chrome / Chromium
