3 people e3fa701893 Recreate preview output directory before writing (fix 0.18 regression: silent permanent preview loss) (#23784) ...

* Recreate preview output directory before writing it

The preview directory is created once in PreviewRecorder.__init__, but
record cleanup's remove_empty_directories() can delete it again while it
is empty (e.g. a camera re-added after removal, or an hour with no
retained previews). FFMpegConverter then fails permanently with
"No such file or directory" and previews are silently lost with only
one ERROR log line per hour. Recreate the directory before invoking
ffmpeg so the hourly export self-heals.
