FVxSF Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Search only show 3 topics.. Any way, I'm looking for a very cost effective server side app to convert the popular video formats to FLV. I make next to no money so dirt cheap comes to mind (though I do fancy SourceForge) My home development box is Windows but like most web servers my site is Linux. I'd like to find an app that has binaries for Windows and Linux if possible, if not I can fix up an old machine and toss Linux on it. Now, does any one know of a good server side app to do this? Even if it costs a lot, post it. that way I have a future reference, and also so I know what to avoid while searching the net. Thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ober Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 http://ffmpeg-php.sourceforge.net/ I'm not sure it actually does conversion though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zq29 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 http://ffmpeg-php.sourceforge.net/ I'm not sure it actually does conversion though. Yeah, ffmpeg converts to flv - I'm sure I have converted an mpeg to flv with it before... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FVxSF Posted August 29, 2008 Author Share Posted August 29, 2008 I was looking at ffmpeg, but the only down side is that I cannot restart Apache on my web server. But it's worth looking at, at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
