I didn't try to fix the Sphinx output in LaTeX format when a PNG
image is used, but, from the above log, clearly it did something
wrong. Perhaps there's something bad defined at the sphinx.sty file,
or it simply generates the wrong LaTeX code when the image
is not on PDF format.

Agreed. I sent a patch series to linux-doc, doing the conversion in
advance:
	https://marc.info/?l=linux-doc&m=147859902804144&w=2

Not sure why, but the archives don't have all patches yet.
Anyway, the relevant one is this:
	https://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental.git/commit/?h=pdf-fixes&id=5d41c452c787f6a6c755a3855312435bc439acb8

It basically calls ImageMagick "convert" tool for all png and
pdf files currently at the documentation (they're all at media,
ATM).
	

Thanks,
Mauro
