Hi the tutprial is great I have used it but when I check my Videos folder the converted file has 0 kb. I have ffmpeg on my hosting plan but no flvtool which i guess is not important as it only provides meta data . can any one help/

@Shandra – I’ve never used RED5. I’ll have to look into it.

Which is better – FFMPEG OR RED5?

I will gladly pay anyone, who can develop a php upload script using the ffmpeg that is already installed on my server, so I can simply upload videos (in other formats) to be converted to FLV – like what YouTube does.

I am not building a Video Sharing site, I am trying to add some videos to some products in addition to the images which we can already upload.

I need to find somebody as soon as possible.

Hello Mils

I’m guess they just have media-video/ffmpeg installed on the server.. not the extension for PHP (dev-php5/ffmpeg-php). In my example I’m using a combination of the two. Where you see:

$cmd = $ffmpeg . ” -i ” . $wmvName . ” -ar ” . $srcAR . ” -ab ” . $srcAB . ” -acodec mp3 -f flv -deinterlace -nr 500 -s 320×240 -aspect 4:3 -r “.$srcFPS.” -b 270k -me_range “.$srcFPS.” -i_qfactor 0.71 -g 500 ” . $flvPath . ” | ” . $flvtool2 . ” -U stdin ” . $flvPath;

I’m using exec to manually use ffmpeg (not the extension).

Where you’re seeing the object:
$ffmpegObj->getFrameRate

This is the extension. I use the extension to get additional information about the video. You might be able to figure out how to use the binary alone with exec() to get file information and skip the extension. I would still ask the host if they can install it.

Thanks for the quick reply

I am using the path but with this function in php

$ffmpeg = “/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg”;

extension_loaded($ffmpeg) or die(‘Error in loading ffmpeg’);

it shows me the error so what path I can use. this path has been provided by support team of my server.

Hello Mils

I would try doing a exec() or file_exists() on that path. Depending on the server configuration, it may be permission issue or an issue with accessing the binary from your location (ie: chroot, etc).
