As far as I know, VLC's snapshot feature automatically saves pictures in png format, so it shouldn't be much work at all.

Unfortunately, the wiki does not allow changing the file type after the image is uploaded and I've personally had to go through over 1,000 images to find and mark all the jpgs that needed to be replaced... and some of them still haven't been replaced yet and look shitty on the articles that they are used on. That's why I personally enforce a policy of not allowing jpgs to be used in the first place, since most people will be too lazy to eventually replace it anyway.
