PV command to show progress in Dialog with transfer rate in Mbits

I am using PV -n command to read partitions and using gzip with pipe to compress the read data and storing the file. While data is read and written I am using a while loop to show progress using linux dialog utility. This works great, progress is updated. I want to also display the transfer speed / read speed in Mbits. Also I want to update the DB table with progress as well as transfer speed in Mbits. Since I am using a while loop to read each line, progress should be displayed on a new line for every update. See below my code. (pv -n /dev/$partitions | gzip -c >$path/${filename// /_}-${partitions}.img.gz) 2>&1 | while IFS= read -r progress; do echo "processing /dev/$partitions currently completed $progress" >/run/log.log echo $progress | dialog --title "Capturing OS image of $hdd" --gauge " now creating image of HDD $hdd writing $filename Image, please wait...\n\n\n Processing Partition $i of $totalparts\n\n This process may take some time to complete\n\n" 13 90 0 mysql -u root -pxxxxxx dbi -h localhost | insert into speed(progress, speed) Values ("$line", "mbits") done if I use pv -n command it only returns numeric value of progress on a newline. See below example: ( /data/pv -n /dev/nvme0n1p1 | gzip -c >/run/test.img ) 5 9 29 67 100 Above works great for the progress bar, but I want to do update my db with average speed in mbits. When I run pv command for progress with average speed agrument, progress is updated on the same line instead of print new lines and it breaks my script. See below example. (pv -rep /dev/nvme0n1p1 | gzip -c >/run/test.img ) [4.9MiB/s] [====> ] 4% ETA 0:00:19 ideal output should be like this. (pv -rep /dev/nvme0n1p1 | gzip -c >/run/test.img ) [ 4.18MiB/s] [====> ] 14% ETA 0:00:19 [14.49MiB/s] [===========> ] 54% ETA 0:00:19 [24.39MiB/s] [========================> ] 74% ETA 0:00:19 [44.29MiB/s] [===========================> ] 78% ETA 0:00:19 [46.19MiB/s] [=============================> ] 98% ETA 0:00:19 [57.99MiB/s] [==============================>] 100% ETA 0:00:19 I can use AWK, Sed and Grep to format the the required data and use it in my while loop. But how can I get this to work. If I use pv -F $'%t %r %e\n' I get the desired results. But I cannot use AWK, grep or tr commands. See below example, it returns nothing. (pv -F $'%t %r %e\n' /dev/nvme0n1p1 | gzip -c >/run/test.img ) 2>&1 | tr -d ':[]' Also if I don't redirect stderr to stdout, with the same command above, I don't get desired results, see below, using tr -d to delete following characters ":[]" but does not work. (pv -F $'%t %r %e\n' /dev/nvme0n1p1 | gzip -c >/run/test.img ) | tr -d ':[]' 0:00:01 [25.2MiB/s] ETA 0:00:18 0:00:02 [23.7MiB/s] ETA 0:00:18 0:00:03 [ 100MiB/s] ETA 0:00:07 0:00:04 [ 199MiB/s] ETA 0:00:01 If I use other arguments such as pv -n -r -e, it ignores all other parameters just returns the numeric progress value on a newline. Maybe there is an alternative to pv that I can use to achieve exactly described above or maybe someone can help with pv command.
