You missed the point. The central issue is the list of input streams that ffmpeg detects
(and how many of them it does not detect). This means that the only meaningful info in
my post was the display of the input streams by ffmpeg. The copy and other options are
just there to form a valid ffmpeg command but they are useless.

Thanks anyway for replying.
