Actually not, the whole information thrown by the command was sent but the
ffmpeg version and other related stuff which hadn't to do with file
information. I supress in order to give a clean output.

specifies a different codec not frame rate.

No, I didn't. I'll tray it later then. Thank for your suggestion.
