My intention was only to copy the stream, not to encode into a  
different format.

>> copy -vn '/storage/orig_qt/SUB_01_INGEST.wav'

Sorry for this, I copied the wrong output from the terminal but it is  
all the same message for any of the file formats. Here is the output  
for 'ac3'

ffmpeg  -i '/storage/orig_qt/SUB_01_INGEST.mov' -map 0 -acodec: copy  
-vn '/storage/orig_qt/SUB_01_INGEST.ac3'
