Aaaahhh... now I see the difference. Perhaps this difference should be
documented? Because "-vo non-existant" complains, I deduced that it
would be illegal to specify "-vc non-existant".
In addition, "-ac pcm" recommends:
PCM: Info: fastest dumping is achieved with -vc null -vo null
This thread has shown that this recommendation is wrong.
