Freetype spu text errors when taking snapshots

Hello,

I've written a little application using LibVLC that captures the desktop and takes screenshots in regular intervals.

However, whenever the libvlc_video_take_snapshot function does its thing, I get the following error:

freetype spu text error: Breaking unbreakable line

Here's my function call and the arguments I pass to it:

#define SNAPSHOT_FOLDER "C:/testing/"
libvlc_media_player_t* media_player;
media_player = libvlc_media_player_new(inst);
int width = 800;
int height= 600;

libvlc_video_take_snapshot(media_player, 0, SNAPSHOT_FOLDER, width, height);

It takes the snapshot just fine, but I wonder why this error occurs.

I'm using VLC 2.1.3 on Windows 7 and simply used the libvlc from the sdk folder there. From what I've gathered, this problem is something font related and might be that little pop-up on the Direct3D output that shows you what path the snapshot got saved to.

This is a normal warning
