Bash: displaying selected output, do not print unnecessary output

I don't know if it's possible: I'm using ffmpeg and I would like to reduce the output of a command. I have this result:

I just would like to have this 4 informations:

1) Duration: 00:51:05.07, start: 0.100667, bitrate: 0 kb/s
2)  File '/media/path/video.mkv' already exists. Overwrite ? [y/N] y
3)  Output #0, matroska, to '/media/path/video.mkv':
4)  frame= 3000 fps=174 q=-1.0 Lsize=   12325kB time=00:02:00.00 bitrate= 841.4kbits/s

I've tried the -v option, but the output is either -v info (this long output), or -v warning, or -v error. There's not what I would like to have. I've seen this question but the output is totally clear. Can I put an exception for specially string ? Thanks all

Edit: my line in my script is like that:

ffmpeg -i "${M3U2}" -vcodec copy -acodec copy "${Directory}/${PROG}_${ID}.mkv"

I use 

while read -d $'\n' -r line; do

  # dynamically filter line
  case line in:
   *what i want*)
   echo "hihih$line"
   ;;
  esac

done < <(program i want to run)

To dynamically filter output

You can redirect stderr to stdout and use grep to filter lines e.g.

ffmpeg -i "${M3U2}" -vcodec copy -acodec copy "${Directory}/${PROG}_${ID}.mkv" 2>&1 | grep -E -e '[[:blank:]]+Duration' -e '[[:blank:]]+File' -e '[[:blank:]]+Output' -e '[[:blank:]]+frame'

Or

ffmpeg -i "${M3U2}" -vcodec copy -acodec copy "${Directory}/${PROG}_${ID}.mkv" 2>&1 | egrep -e '^[[:blank:]]*(Duration|File|Output|frame)'

You should just have to make sure that your command won't be asking for input.
