1 Some additional information: the `-ab' and `-b' options seems to be
2 broken on my machine, since they accepts any argument, even those which
3 will cause error in the case of Ubuntu, for example `@@' or so.

5 Nevertheless, the option parsing is not completely broken, because an
6 unknown option ffmpeg will directly trigger a error in ffmpeg on my
7 machine, but `-ab' and `-b' (as expected) do not.
