New description:

 Using ffmpeg to convert my movies. I have a script and therefore I'm not
 interested in seeing all the output on the terminal, so I use `-v quiet`,
 but this also excludes the progress of the current job. Would be nice if
 `-v progress` was an option to see only the current progress.
