It was originally obvious to me. Except that I don't get what Windows
does differently. But I never engaged with Windows stuff anyway, I'm
Unix.
It wasn't obvious to me, as my addition of a SIGPIPE handler didn't
work. But now it does. Hmm:
Exiting normally, received signal 13.
Nice. Nicolas, do you think adding
signal(SIGPIPE, sigterm_handler); /* Termination (pipe closed). */
to ffmpeg.c would be accepted as a patch? I don't know all the
implications, it might be worth a review therefore.
Thanks,
Moritz
