Hi,
I have booked some space from a third party hosting service provider which includes ffmpeg-php service. I have used the syntax from my php script:

When I execute the script it always going to die section. Rather than when I am using this ( the $videoffmpeg value )

It created a flv file in the desire folder, but its a zero byte file.

I need some sugg..

Line, 3 is where you input your video, the output.jpg is the output mpeg also called jpg image format which will be be grabbed. the output.ogm is the actual encoded video. ogm is just a open source video container like avi mkv etc. you can change it to whatever suits your needs.

Line 12, deals with the image grabbing which uses ffmpeg, not much to be said here.

Line 16, deals with Mencoder this basically is the encoding engine, here you can change bit-rate, video width and height and aspect ratio. and volume control.

Dependency packages and operating systems

1. Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop or Server version
2. Lamp server – php5 CLI everything that includes inside Lamp server
3. FFmpeg
4. Mencoder

thanks it.

Hi,

I have been working the the audio conversion formats from wav,avi to mp3. I have successfully installed ffmpeg and it does shows in phpinfo().

However, when I run the script , it does not convert the audio file.

Below is the php script I am trying to execute:

define(‘FFMPEG_LIBRARY’, ‘ /usr/local/bin/’);
exec(FFMPEG_LIBRARY.’ffmpeg -i notify.wav newwave.mp3′) or die (“ffmpeg did not work”);

Output is : ffmpeg did not work.

Any guess?

Can you help with this? I am trying since long time to resolve the issue.

Thanks,
Utsavi.
