Morn, I had to restart vlc after changing the output format before I got JPGs.
You're right, Sanne, it works after a restart. All VLC needs now is a JPEG quality slider in its prefs, then JPEG export would actually be useful…

Also, chaning the file format to JPG doesn't work for me. I still get PNGs.
]]>Yup, same here, with fully updated 64 bit system with vlc 2.0.4-4.
The png file gets written and is always 2.0 MB in size. Opening it with Gimp gives the error message:
Opening '/home/me/vlcsnap-2012-11-25-13h57m02s145.png' failed: Error while reading '/home/me/vlcsnap-2012-11-25-13h57m02s145.png'. File corrupted?
Using imagemagick's identify to get info about the file results in:
~$ identify vlcsnap-2012-11-25-13h57m02s145.png identify: improper image header `vlcsnap-2012-11-25-13h57m02s145.png' @ error/png.c/ReadPNGImage/3743.
Setting output to jpg also works for me.
So, it's not just you, seems to be something's broken somewhere. Sorry, can't help more, but at least I can confirm the behaviour.
Thank you,it looks like that we should report it as a bug
