communicate() blocks, how to make it non-blocking

[busla]

When running ffmpy in the background I needed to remove the communicate() call in https://github.com/Ch00k/ffmpy/blob/master/ffmpy.py#L103.

I think I´m not understanding the subprocess module properly so do you have any suggestions on how to make the subprocess non-blocking?

Cheers.

@busla Would running ffmpy in a separate thread work for your scenario?

[busla]

Yes it would, that´s actually how I implemented my project in the beginning, but soon realised that it was unnecessary.

FFmpy is now run on my class instances and added as a class variable so I can terminate it when I flag my instance to do so.
