[MPlayer-users] Screenshot oddity

[Jack Smith]

I took three screenshots from a DVD, then tried to take screenshots from an
avi, both movies being run from the same directory.  After three (or maybe
four, I wasn't counting) avi screenshots that didn't work, I got one that
did.  My guess was that there was a counter being set in the run, instead of
just looking at the png files.  When I tried to duplicate it by running
other avis or by rerunning the DVD and doing screenshots from there, I
couldn't.  Everything worked perfectly.  All the screenshots worked and the
png files are all nice and sequential, whether done from the DVD or thae
avis.  I even tried using the find command to see if any shot*png files were
hiding in other directories.  Nope.  Obviously, I'm happy with how things
are, they're working perfectly -- but -- any idea what happened?  No biggy,
it's not broken (at the moment), just curious.  If it ever happens again,
I'll save some output for you.

Thanks,
Jack
