Hi Hitesh,

I want to install vhook in ffmpeg. Is there any way to enable vhook capabilities in ffmpeg.
Also I want to install imlib2. Please can you help me, how can I do it.

Thanks
Ashish

Hey Hitesh,

I’m currently trying to install FFmpeg on my centos 5.3 server. When i run it to see if it’s working i get the error

“ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libavdevice.so.52: cannot open shared object file, or some other library. ”

I don’t know anything about linux however so i have not been able to follow along with previous posts. If it’s not a lot to it, could you please tell me step by step, what commands i need to type through the terminal?

Thanks a lot!
Daniel

Hitesh,

CENTOS 5.3 i686
The hostgator people asking $75 to install it.

Please help me..

I downloaded all the files as mentioned above in the article. I uploaded all of them to a folder on the same level as that of the public_html folder. All files were successfully untared. Then I followed each step as mentioned above. But I still get the error Unknown –enable-libamr-nb. Can any body tell me if the source files are to be placed in any particular folder? Im running all the commands as Root.

Hi Hitesh,

Hi,

i have installed ffmpeg successfully.

# php -i | grep ffmpeg
ffmpeg
ffmpeg-php version => 0.6.0-svn
ffmpeg-php built on => Nov 24 2009 18:42:08
ffmpeg-php gd support => enabled

ffmpeg libavformat version => Lavf52.31.0
ffmpeg swscaler version => SwS0.7.1
ffmpeg.allow_persistent => 0 => 0
ffmpeg.show_warnings => 0 => 0

also add the extention=\ffmpeg.so\ in php.ini file.

extension_dir = \/usr/lib/php/modules\
extension=\ffmpeg.so\

extension is loaded and i have checked ffmpeg entry in phpinfo.php file

when i used ffmpeg in my php script like below,

$audioffmpeg=’usr/bin/ffmpeg’;
$encode_cmd = \$audioffmpeg -i notify.wav test.mp3\;
exec($encode_cmd) or die (\ffmpeg did not work\);

it shows me \ffmpeg did not work\

in usr/bin directory there is a entry of ffmpeg so i have used ‘usr/bin/ffmpeg’ path. Also i have check in usr/local/bin but there is no any single file

i dont know it is path problem or other.

how would i check n set the exact path in php script?
how would i use ffmpeg in my php script?

thanks,
utsavi

Hello .@shital

You need to install patch !

Like this :
yum install patch

—-good luck ~~

I was trying to install ffmpeg-php on Fedora9, I’ve downloaded the ffpmeg-php-0.6.0 and used phpize and ./configure –enable-shared –prefix=/usr and both of them worked fine but when I tried to run make I got the following error:
“make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.”

I tried the same procedure with ffmpeg-php-0.5.1 and ffmpeg-0.5.0 but failed.
Can anyone help with this.

Got this error loading shared libraries libavdevice.so.52 while using it with Apache.

How can i solve it as i created an application with web interface which converts the videos. If i convert it from command line it works like champ but if i try to convert from my browser then it gives error \loading shared libraries libavdevice.so.52L: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory\

Any Idea.

Thanks In Advance
