About this extension

YouTube Screenshot Button is a modern browser extension that allows you to take and save high-quality screenshots from any YouTube and OK.ru video to your PC with just one click. Without using third-party programs, without cropping the video player frames. Fast, easy and safe, without viruses and ads.

To take a screenshot just click on the camera image at the bottom of the online video player.

Features of the browser extension:

The screenshot button, perfectly integrated into the interface of the YouTube and OK.ru player, allows you to take snapshots without stopping the playback;
The frame is saved without video player frames in the highest possible quality in jpeg format;
The screenshot gets the original name of the video, as it was on the service's website. That means it is always easy to be found;
"Embedded" video screenshots loading support, i.e. YouTube and OK.ru videos hosted on third-party sites.
