Above we have snapshot and git snapshot pointing on ffmpeg.org, this would
be inconsistent. Also below we can see this snapshot URL from github. I
would suggest dropping the snapshot button altogether or using the
24h-delay one. After all, the ffmpeg.org source and git snapshot are
available above, and the github snapshot as well below.
