IMAQ AVI Get Filter Names - flood my temp dir with *.tmp files

Any call to "IMAQ AVI Get Filter Names.vi" creates 19 new *.tmp fils in my temp directory I test it in 2 PCs.
I use LabVIEW 7.1 Vision 7.1.1 win XP SP2

IMAQ AVI Get Filter Names does create temporary files, but it is supposed to delete them when it is done with them.  It is possible that it is unable to delete them for some reason - feel free to delete them manually.

Actually, after further investigation, this is a problem with the current software.  This will be fixed in the next version, but for now you can delete all files in your temp directory that have the pattern "AVI*.tmp" - these will be generated after you call IMAQ AVI Get Filter Names, and only one will be created after you call IMAQ AVI Create with a compression filter.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention!
