Are PHP7 and ffmpeg compatible?

[Chrisj]

I am looking getting a PHP script who's requirements list is:

 

php GD module;

php EXIF module;

php CURL module;

FFMPEG must be installed with libx264 codec.

The php function exec() must be enabled on the server

PHP7

 

but I am told that maybe ffmpeg and php7 aren't compatible. Is that true? If so, what's with this companies' requirements list? Any ideas?

ffmpeg is just another program on the server that PHP runs using the exec function. What PHP version you have is mostly irrelevant so long as that function is enabled.
