gvp16 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Does anyone know of any open source packages to upload video to a your website similar to the facebook or youtube one? eg. where it will convert file types etc...? or can this be done in PHP? I know you could just use file upload to upload the video, but that wouldnt really a solution would it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Take a look at the ffmpeg extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvp16 Posted June 19, 2011 Author Share Posted June 19, 2011 Thanks, ill take a look, would that require root access on the server to install? because I dont think I have that as I am on shared hosting. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 It is an extension, so yes. You will need to ask your host if they support it or if they could install it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvp16 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 Have been told this by my host I've spent a little while looking in to this module this morning, the modules quite outdated so we wouldn't be able to install it for a few reasons a) this module is not available via easyApache b) this module is not safe for shared hosting a VPS or Dedicated server is recommended c) this module is dated and will not work with PHP 5.3 only older versions such as PHP 4 I would recommend you look at another solution for your script or application. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
