I've got the same Problem with Firefox (Version 49 & 48) running on Browserstack. With 47 everything worked fine.
As I see it the base64 encoded screenshot coming from firefox is an empty string.

In case anyone else has a problem with this even when using an old version of Firefox I had to revert to the older version of selenium-server-standalone for my hub & node, dropping from 3.0.1 to 2.53.1. Then my tests would run against FF47.0.2.
