libvlc_video_take_snapshot with no target file path showing?

[SmallFish2014]

Hi All:

I managed to take snapshot in libvlc via libvlc_video_take_snapshot, however each time this function gets called, the target file path is displayed in top center as well as a thumbnail image on top left, it's annoying, is it possible to turn this feature off?

I found a similar request in below link, however no answer yet.

thanks in advance.

kind regards

One solution is to disable OSD (--no-osd or other way)
(i searched through vlc source but cant find any specific preference for disabling only "screenshot taken" message)

thanks, it works.

I managed to remove the text part by using "--no-osd" as you said.
However a thumbnail image is still displayed on top left corner on each save, any other arguments?

Did you try --no-snapshot-preview

thanks sherington.
it's working perfect now after applying --no-snapshot-preview.
