You can use the video snapshot feature to capture snapshots of a specific size at specific points in time of a video. The snapshots are used in scenarios such as video thumbnails, sprites, and progress bar thumbnails. You can specify the points in time when snapshots are captured, the interval between two consecutive snapshots, the number of snapshots to be captured, the types of snapshots to be captured, and whether to compose multiple snapshots into one image sprite. You can submit snapshot jobs in the ApsaraVideo Media Processing (MPS) console or by using the API or SDKs. This topic provides sample code for using MPS SDK for Node.js to capture snapshots.
