Advice on Snaphots of live streams

I've got a streaming video/audio app(CHAT). and everything is working nicely. I'm going to add a snapshot function to it and i'd love some pointers. There will be approx 100users, each user will have the options of taking snapshots either single shots or a few automated ones...I'm using FMS2

1. Are there any know issues recording parts of a live stream while it's streaming?
2. Should I use the same NC and record the FLV file/ CHAT instance then do a FLV -> FFMPEG -> jpg?
3. Should I make a new NC (and stop the live stream) to a different app(snapshot) and do the FLV->jpg there

And if you have any other good advice please let me know

    Well i kind of figured it out : Using a setinterval on the serverside and instanciating a Stream from the server then playing the live stream and then recording 1-2s flv files to be converted by the FFMPEG.
