takeSnapshot command creates zero-byte file about vlc.mediaelement

[kakone]

I was thinking about a permissions problem but even if I add Pictures Library capability (and I save the snapshot into the pictures folder), it doesn't work. Perhaps this method is not implemented in UWP (moreover, this feature does not exist in VLC for UWP).

Hi kakone, thanks so much for your reply. :)

Do you mean that the VLC library here below totally does not implement the takeSnapshot method? Anyway to put in a request to ask them to implement it so that it also can work in your control?

Your control was so easy and nice to use, I wanted to implement a simple FaceDectection app using yr control by taking a snapshot of a streaming RSTP video but got stuck when I realised the takeSnapshot function does not work as expected.

Would you have any suggestions how I can get around it? thank you! :)

the API still exists, but does not work. this is quite disappointing
