Load Video Frame Pixaroma

What it does

Loads a video and pulls out a single frame you choose, then sends it on as an image. Use it when you want one still picture from a clip without exporting the frame in another program first.

The frame you pick shows in a preview right on the node, and it reads the video's frame count for you so the slider knows how far it can go.

How to pick a frame

• Click choose video to upload to add a file, or pick one from the dropdown.
• Drag the slider under the preview to scrub to any spot. The preview updates as you drag.
• Use the ◀ and ▶ buttons to step exactly one frame back or forward for a pinpoint choice.
• Or type the exact frame number in the frame box above the preview.

Good to know

• The frame number is 0-based, so frame 0 is the very first frame.
• If you enter a number past the end of the video, the last frame is used.
• The preview is a quick guide; the frame the node sends out is always exact. On heavy phone videos (HEVC) the preview can lag a little, same as the Load Video node.

Outputs

image

The frame you picked, as an image.

mask

A blank mask that matches the frame, so it fits the same slots as Load Image.

frame_count

How many frames the whole video has.

fps

Frames per second of the video.

width / height

Frame size in pixels.

Requirements

Reads frames with PyAV (or imageio as a fallback). Most ComfyUI setups already have these. If you ever see a 'video reader' message, install PyAV: in ComfyUI Manager use its pip install option and enter av (portable Windows: run python_embeded\python.exe -m pip install av in your ComfyUI folder).
