VLC not taking snapshots (Windows 10)

Postby Lamont95 » 24 Aug 2015 20:14

My VLC player doesn't seem to want to take snapshots or capture video anymore. I have tried:
-Uninstalling and reinstalling the software.
-Changing the preferences: the photo destination folder.

Nothing seems to fix the problem, and I am getting no preview of the snapshot when I click "Take Snapshot" (I have ticked the box in Preferences to show the preview).
