Description

The Extractor tool is an advanced solution for extracting multimedia data from directories and files. It identifies images and videos hidden in various formats, files, and directories. Notable features include transforming images into a single PNG format and preserving videos as keyframes for easy post-processing. In addition, Extractor automatically generates thumbnails for each image.

Extractor supports over 60 multimedia formats, including the most common formats such as BMP, JPG, PNG, WEBM, MP4, and MPEG formats. Extractor recognizes almost 100 different formats for detecting multimedia content, in addition to the already mentioned formats of documents (PDF, DOC, XLS,...) and archives (RAR, ZIP,...).
