with a single (long) command in the console and either put a '&' on
the end to background it or run it in a screen and then detach. This
is how the process runs, it's not done by /etc/init.d/blah-de-blah.
Can the monit wrapper script still work with this?

Any reason what ever script/program you have starting ffmpeg can't
make
a pid file?
