I am trying to read an incomplete MP4 file as it is being written in
real time.
This is in general impossible with FFmpeg.
I'm not sure it's possible at all with mp4/mov at all- you need
metadata that's written when the file is closed.
In some live broadcast workflows, which need some post work before
telecast, the encoder writes a file with pre-specified metadata i.e.
timestamps and packet offsets, and writes out the media to those
offsets. This is inefficient in terms of space packing but any NLE can
open these files and access the new data as it gets added.
