hello yes it seems so expect recompile with -disable-logging there is a python solution to silent it but i need to wait 2 day to post an answer in my question so i will post it tomorrow if it can interrested someone

hello yes it seems so expect recompile with -disable-logging there -disable-logging

There is a python solution to silent it but i need it: the idea is to wait 2 day to post an answer redirect the sterr (where ffmpeg library push the log) "elsewhere" only when this function is executed:
I use the way explain by this very good blog article
