Feature Request: Toggle PNG Saving in Video Combine node

[total1ty]

Since the metadata gets saved to the mp4 as well, I'd like to keep my output folder cleaner by having an option to disable saving the mandatory PNG alongside the video file when using the Video Combine node

edit: there seems so be at least some demand, since e.g. this old issue implies such a feature #169

A setting already exists

oh, it is in the general plugin settings, not in the node itself, got it. Thanks.

Maybe this should not be a global setting, but be workflow-specific, right?
I feel like having a toggle inside the node would make more sense.

There's also a "Prune outputs" node to handle those cases.

This option came before the global setting by about a year, but proved too clunky for most people and caused frequent complaints

With LTX-2 it seems to save the video twice.
One time with audio and one time without audio (and only the video without the audio has the meta data)

(+ the png, but that can be turned off in settings it seems)

EDIT/UPDATE :
It seems that if you turn off "keep required intermediate files" at the node settings it will not save a muted copy of the LTX-2 video.

All good ;-)
