I am using VICE 2.4.18, rev 29455M compiled with --enable-static-ffmpeg and --enable-gnomeui. Launching the "Save media file…" command of the "Snapshot" menu produces a dialog misleadingly titled "Save screenshot file". Since this dialog can be used to record not just still images but also video, it should instead be titled "Save media file" (just like in WinVICE). Similarly, there is a frame labelled "Image Format" which would better be labelled "Media format".

The same labelling problem exists with the native Linux UI. (However, that UI has an additional problem which makes media recording impossible; see Bug 264.)
