Previously, with the file name not matching the target, the files were regenerated every time fate is rerun - contrary to the other test targets in the same file. (While regenerating it every time might be desireable, as that's what the test is about, the file at least has a dependency on the ffmpeg executable, making them regenerated every time the executable is updated - and this change at least makes it consistent with the rest.)
