I agree, I suggest using this instead : https://github.com/kkroening/ffmpeg-python . While not perfect once you figure it out it is far easier to use and you can wrap more complicated workflows and reuse them later.
Kkroening's wrapper has been inactive for some time. I suggest using https://github.com/jonghwanhyeon/python-ffmpeg instead. It has proper async support and a better API.
