I'm looking for a good* video player for Android which can take screenshots of the current frame.
I tried VPlayer, but the problem is that if the video is in HD, the sound and frames come unsynchronised (sound before frames). Hence I can't use it.
It should support Android 4.4
*good: can play .Mkv files :)
As @danijelc suggested, BS Player is a video player that can take screenshots and can play MKV files. Although I don't like the app's and its setting's design, it's still a good app.
There is only one disadvantage that bothers me; it can't play MKV files with the HD decoder.
Gom Player does that very well https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gretech.gomplayerko
Its not a video player, but if you have the timestamp(s) you can use ffmpeg to extract frames from a video. You may, as I have, that that this is a more accurate option compared to using a video player.
[Power]+[Vol-]. But otherwise, yes, taking a regular screenshot could work I would have thought. However, I'd question how much control you have over this method. If you want to save an exact frame of the video this could be tricky and pausing the video at an exact frame usually results in additional controls appearing on screen. – MrWhite Feb 15 '14 at 12:32
