Change folder for image out files

How do I set a different folder for the image out option? Now all the images grabbed from the video stream outputs to the VLC startup folder.

I have tried the --snapshot-path option, but I suppose that one only works for snapshots, not the image video output.

In open file. settings, the first box in stream output is destination target. Fill it in!

Maybe I am a silly newbie, but that doesn't work.

I know I should use Destionation Target when using sout to stream the videofile, but this is just a question about the location of the image files (frames) grabbed from the video at certain intervals during playback (output module 'image video out'), not the transcoded video file..

Sorry! Misunderstood the question.

Go to: Miscellaneous, Preferences, Video and under Snapshot fill in the box marked "Video snapshot directory" or select Browse. :lol:
