darknessmdk Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 So I have a project that requires me to be able to convert uploaded videos to FLVs, like you tube and google videos Can any point me in the right direction to go about doing this? I've heard of some apps you have to install on your hosting, one called FFMPEG Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/76062-converting-videos-to-flvs-like-youtube/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonMariner Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 yep, if you have shell access you can easily install the apps required. http://www.netbrix.net/archives/category/netbrix/page/2/ You don't need all the apps on that page. For the site I am currently working on I installed lame, ffmpeg, flvtool2 and mplayer+mencoder. work well and are easy to set up.

darknessmdk Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 Awesome, How do you install them on the server? I'm guessing you just don't upload them and thats it?
