Bug#586171: respect $TERM and/or provide --no-color

Package: ffmpeg
Version: 5:0.6~svn20100603-0.0
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/ffmpeg

The program assumes a certain kind of terminal or something, and puts
escape sequences into the output to make different colors, and does not
consult $TERM or offer a --no-color option to turn it off.

I however have discovered a workaround:
$ ffmpeg x.flv y.mp3 2>&1|cat
