Package: ffmpeg
Version: 5:0.6~svn20100603-0.0
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/ffmpeg
The program assumes a certain kind of terminal or something, and puts
escape sequences into the output to make different colors, and does not
consult $TERM or offer a --no-color option to turn it off.
I however have discovered a workaround:
$ ffmpeg x.flv y.mp3 2>&1|cat

this version has never been been uploaded to debian. please report such
bugs to the distributor where you received the package from.

This is wrong. See the relevant piece of code from libavutil/log.c:
#undef fprintf
static void colored_fputs(int level, const char *str){
if(use_color<0){
#if defined(_WIN32) && !defined(__MINGW32CE__)
CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO con_info;
con = GetStdHandle(STD_ERROR_HANDLE);
use_color = (con != INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) && !getenv("NO_COLOR");
if (use_color) {
GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(con, &con_info);
attr_orig = con_info.wAttributes;
background = attr_orig & 0xF0;
}
#elif HAVE_ISATTY
use_color= getenv("TERM") && !getenv("NO_COLOR") && isatty(2);
#else
use_color= 0;
#endif
}
if(use_color){
set_color(level);
}
fputs(str, stderr);
if(use_color){
reset_color();
}
}

This proves that the detection code as quoted above indeed works.
