I believe cygwin supports /c/fubar.avi. If you need spaces in the filename, 
you can probably backslash-escape them or put the whole argument between 
double-quotes: -vo jpeg:outdir=/c/foobar\ movie.avi
or: -vo "jpeg:outdir=/c/foobar movie.avi"

Note that I am not a windows user, but this should work at least with 
bash/cygwin and perhaps with cmd.exe, I don't know.
