Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.relaystation.ai/v1/media/thumbnailWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to extract a single still frame from a video at a precise timestamp and receive it as a standard image format (PNG or JPEG). It is ideal for generating thumbnails, poster images, scene captures, or preview stills from video content without downloading or processing the entire video file. It is not suited for transcribing video audio, analyzing video content, or generating multiple frames in bulk.
Side effects
- Invalid or inaccessible video URL returns an error
- Timestamp beyond video duration returns an out-of-bounds error
- Unsupported video format may cause extraction failure
- Network timeout if the video source is slow to respond
- Invalid output format specification returns a validation error
