[FFmpeg-user] FFMPEG producing multiple outputs (one streaming and one snapshot)

i am trying to capture video from a camera and produce to two outputs
1) streaming (h264)
2) taking periodic snapshot of the image (jpg)
is this possible ? i read
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Creating%20multiple%20outputs that
ffmpeg can have multiple outputs but i am not sure how to handle when
one output is just
snapshot of image (and triggered by an external signal or a periodic
timer ?)
btw, the camera module i am using can support MPEG (/dev/video0) and
H264 (/dev/video1),
if i am streaming with H264 (single output), then the MPEG (video0) is
not operable.
if it is not possible, please advise what other software that can do
this ? gstreamer ?
thanks
