Hi,

In the end, is there anyway to know when a snapshot could be taken,
that won't be flagged as work arround or bug ?
I'd like to avoid polling "has_vout()" as much as possible, as it's
definitely an ugly way of doing things, and it can lead to infinite
loop in case something goes wrong (e.g. no codec found, or anything
that can cause the vout not to be created actually...)

Best regards,
