Output to image: corrupt?

First off I had a big problem figuring out how to do this because
http://wiki.videolan.org/How_to_create_thumbnails was completely wrong. None of those seem valid anymore.
So I'm doing this:
Code: Select all
vlc --video-filter scene -V dummy --scene-format=png --start-time=6 --stop-time=15 --scene-ratio 2 --scene-prefix=thumb --scene-path="C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\thumbs" video.mkv
The frames come out okay, but like half of them are "corrupt" and look like this:

Why? How do I fix this?
Windows 7 64bit, VLC 1.0.3

Yeah I tried
You can speed up the H.264/MPEG-4 AVC playback by disabling loop filter for H.264 decoding. To do this go to Tools -> Preferences... (set Show Settings to All) and Input / Codecs -> Other codecs -> FFmpeg and in the drop-down box for Skip the loop filter for H.264 decoding change it to All. Remember to press Save to save VLC settings and restart VLC after that to make sure changes are enabled.
But it didn't fix the problem.

Anyone?
Also, where is the scene output module? It's not listed under Prefs->Video->Output Modules in the dropdown yet it does have a config section.

Scene is filter, not a VOUT.
