Monitor Handbrake progress

Haven't a clue what I'm doing, still figuring out how to edit the included profiles. Ultimately I'd like to be able to use progress info from other apps. For example, a display like "Handbrake: [X] tasks remaining, [time] left on current task". Something similar for a secure hard drive eraser app would be nice too. Is there a way to redirect output from the command line to a GOverlay element? Or is that entirely the wrong approach? (I'm using the 3.5" display on Windows 10)

If you want to draw custom stuff on the display you need to create a plugin for it, but you will need to know either VB.NET or VC# to do it.
If the app that gives that information supports storing the data on an .INI file, GOverlay can read it without making a plugin
