I used to take several snapshots per second (7-8) from videos to make animated gifs. I quickly hit the snapshot hotkey and the pictures were saved instantly. Sometimes, with HD movies, I had to set a slower speed (x0.75 or x0.5).
Now I changed my computer (from win XP to win 7) and even if it's way more powerful, videolan takes too much time to save one image and I can't take enough snapshots per second anymore.
Even setting the speed to x0.12, the last jpg is saved some second after I stop clicking the snapshot hotkey.
Can I do something to speed up this process?
too slow taking snapshot, why?

Re: too slow taking snapshot, why?
I just tried, but the quality of the images is awful and I hate to use the command-line

Hi, I know this is an old post but I was wondering if you figured a solution to this problem as it's happening to me. Thanks!
Re: too slow taking snapshot, why?
Use scene filter with png compression, no quality loss.
