Since the downloader is not a PowerShell cmdlet, its errors won't trigger in a try/catch block. Therefore, it'll need something like this to pass its error messages back to PowerShell:

$downloaderStatus = ffmpeg -i ..... 2>&1

Then the contents of $downloaderStatus can be run through a regex match to determine if it failed, and if so, how.
