Public bug reported:
ffmpeg floods my log files with startup messages. This makes it very difficult
to see what ffmpeg is actually doing. The startup message should be removed.
This problem has been discussed by others before at
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5596135/run-ffmpeg-without-outputting-configuration-information
and reported at https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/ticket/988 .
Nevertheless the problem still persists and needs to be fixed.
Example follows below:
computer:~$ ffmpeg -loglevel quiet
