How to extract frames from a video with transparency?

How do I extract frames from a video (.mov Apple ProRes 4444) with the alpha channel?

I need the PNG images so transparency is not lost.

I have 23 videos so I would prefer to automate the process.

Solution

  • If any reads this in future, this worked for me

    ffmpeg -i file.mov -r 24/1 output%03d.png
