Comment (by cehoyos):

 Replying to [comment:4 vineet156]:
 > This is my command line.
 > ffmpeg -skip_frame nokey -i 1280x720_Shinkarenko-Gonzalez.mp4 -vf
 showinfo='iskey' -f null -

 But can't you confirm that there is a tiny, tiny speed difference between
 the following two commands:
 {{{
 $ time ffmpeg -skip_frame nokey -i 1280x720_Shinkarenko-Gonzalez.mp4 -vf
 showinfo='iskey' -f null test1
 }}}
 {{{
 $ time ffmpeg -i 1280x720_Shinkarenko-Gonzalez.mp4 -vf showinfo='iskey' -f
 null test2
 }}}
 indicating that -skip_frame nokey is working as expected with ffmpeg?

 The way I understand your original report is that you want to see the same
 speed gain with ffprobe than with ffmpeg, if you just don't want to see
 the output,  at least with ffmpeg you can use the select filter.
