[Snapshot feature broken?

[MichaelSkofield]

Using the latest build, 0.8.4-test-1, I can't get the snapshot to work.
I got 0 kb files.
Having used nightly builds of .8.4 from 9/26 and 9/23 I get the same errors.
Last nightly that I have, that works with the snapshot feature, is 0.8.3 from 7/1

Code: Select all

main debug: looking for encoder module: 10 candidates ffmpeg debug: libavcodec already initialized ffmpeg error: cannot find encoder PNG Image main error: no suitable encoder module for fourcc `png '. VLC probably does not support this image format. main error: could not create snapshot C:\Documents and Settings\**********\My Documents\My Pictures/vlcsnap-71961.png

0.8.4-test1 was mistakenly compiled without PNG support (taking screenshots as JPEG files should work though). Please install 0.8.4-test1a instead.

Looks like the final 0.8.4 doesn't have PNG support either. I'm getting the same error running 0.8.4 on OS X 10.4.3:

ffmpeg: cannot find encoder PNG Image
main: no suitable encoder module for fourcc `png '.
VLC probably does not support this image format.

Worked fine on 0.8.4test2

Taking Snapshots in PNG works fine for me with VLC 0.8.4 final

yep. works fine in 0.8.4 final.

Missing PNG in 0.8.4 final is a Mac-only problem, due to the version of ffmpeg included - see this thread for more info.
