Displaying output preview During various video tests, we can save plenty of time by displaying the command output directly on the screen and not to save it to the file and than preview it in a media player.

Instead of generating a new file with ffmpeg tool using the simplified command
ffmpeg -i input_file ... test_options ... output_file
we can use the ffplay that will show exactly the same as ffmpeg saves to the file using the command
ffplay -i input_file ... test_options
