That's funny...
I admire FFmpeg's standard compliance. It gets to the point where you 
create systems to justify such changes.

Yes, we got the point already...
That's why I provided the workaround. Be prepared to receive a bunch of

Attached is the same workaround without a superfluous -n. It suits 
FFmpeg's needs...
