 When encoding with -vcodec libxvid in two-pass mode, the second pass
 creates a copy of the first-pass log as /tmp/xvidff.*. This copy is not
 deleted when the second-pass encoding ends.

 I don't know what sense it makes to create a copy of the file in the first
 place, but assuming there is a good reason for that, this temporary file
 should be deleted by ffmpeg before it quits. I happen to have /tmp mounted
 in memory (tmpfs) so every file left behind is actually stealing my memory
 until next reboot.
