Seems like RunCommandInDir or simply RunCommand can do what the
ExecWait with all its setting up of process flags and whatnot does.
So as you say I could as well discard the unit altogether and put this
call in the main code instead.

Thanks for pointing it out. Original code is from about 2008...

In fact a few years back I created a video handler using ffmpeg as the
processing program and when looking back there I see now I used
RunCommandInDir. And it is also Windows/Linux.
This was a project built entirely with Lazarus/Fpc of course.
