require('ffmpeg-static') returns string but require('ffprobe-static') returns { path: string }

> require('ffmpeg-static')
'I:\\works\\workspace\\***\\node_modules\\ffmpeg-static\\ffmpeg.exe'
>
> require('ffprobe-static')
{
  path: 'I:\\works\\workspace\\***\\node_modules\\ffprobe-static\\bin\\win32\\x64\\ffprobe.exe'
}
