We have a managed VPS, and have never needed on our own dedicated servers in teh past to have FFMPEG due to the line of data we host. So, I asked our provider to please install FFMPEG onto our server.
This is the response I have received:
FFMpeg requires PHP to be compiled as CGI (PHPsuexec) that is only officially supported by cPanel. So in order to install FFMpeg modules we have to resetup your VPS with cPanel.
Now our VPS is running Direct Admin on CentOS.
I am not trying to poke holes at our provider, just trying to find out if this is the truth, or if there is a work around that can accomplish this.
I do not want CPANEL on our account. We have two unix techs here at work, however unfortunately they are both off for two weeks as of middle of last week, so i'm caught with who to look for to gain a second opinion.
12. Compile FFMPEG cd ~/ffmpeg/ffmpeg ./configure --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libogg --enable-libvorbis --disable-mmx --enable-shared echo '#define HAVE_LRINTF 1' >> config.h make make install
I got an error like this:
Quote:
[root@host ffmpeg]# ./configure --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libogg --enable-libvorbis --disable-mmx --enable-shared Unable to create and execute files in /tmp. Set the TMPDIR environment variable to another directory and make sure that /tmp is not mounted noexec. Sanity test failed. If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest version from SVN. If the latest version fails, report the problem to the ffmpeg-devel@mplayerhq.hu mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.freenode.net. Include the log file "config.err" produced by configure as this will help solving the problem.
Where can i find a step-by-step guide on how to install ffmpeg-php on windows? I got totally lost while doing that. Below are the steps i'v taken so far:
- Dled Windows EXT from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showf...roup_id=122353 (ffmpeg_new.rar) - Unzipped it. -Copied all php_ffmpeg_... dlls into php's ext dir -Copied avformat.dll and avcodec.dll to system32 folder -Activated ext (i am using WAMP5) -Restarted Apache -Ran phpinfo(); and didnt see the ext activated.
These three encoders are required as part of installation on my script, but they don't come with guides, anyone got ANY clue on how to go about installing these?
Has anyone else here installed ffmpeg? I'm almost done getting it setup when I ran into an error which I don't understand. My theory is that I have a version conflict, but I'm not sure how to fix this or what software is conflicting.
Here's the error:
Code: Warning: Module 'ffmpeg' already loaded in Unknown on line 0 /usr/local/bin/php: symbol lookup error: modules/ffmpeg.so: undefined symbol: avcodec_build
I get this on "make test" for ffmpeg-php-0.5.1. All test's fail.
I have a shared hosting account on dreamhost It has php and others installed but it allows custom installations for a number of reasons (control of the php.ini file, ...).
I have shell and ftp access to /home/username/ where my websites are (/home/username/domain.ltd)
I installed php 5.2.9 under /home/username/php5, I also installed ffmpeg but I ran into troubles installing ffmpeg-php.
Now I would like to start over, I'm not very advanced in this and I probably messed some stuff up. It seemed like a good idea to ask for some general advice before going at it again.
First, I was wondering about the filesystem I needed to set up, like the bin, tmp, lib, ... directories. Which ones do I need and what should go in them. And how exactly do I let the system know these folders are there and it should look there for some commands. When I used phpize, it used the default one instead of the one in my custom php folder. Is the export command all there is to it?
When I install PHP, where should I install it and do I need to point it to my directories (bin, lib, etc...) instead of the ones in the host's root. I noticed when installing ffmpeg-php it still looked for the default ones at some points:
HTML Code: "checking for PHP includes... -I/usr/local/include/php -I/usr/local/include/php/main -I/usr/local/include/php/TSRM -I/usr/local/include/php/Zend..." I don't know if this is normal behaviour or not, I'm just basically writing everything I am unsure about.
I got my website to use the custom PHP by editting the htaccess file
Also, what would be the best approach to remove the things I currently installed, I suppose remove the php5 directory is not enough.
Need help installing ffmepg, ffmpeg-php, flvtool2,mplayer,menconder and such for a video hosting site. I own a vps and I have full root access and I want to know how to do that. Can anyone link me to a tutorial or post it here?
I had is running it on my php4.. I upgraded to php5 using easyapache but now its not working.. Its has the ffmpeg.So in the extenuion folder and php.ini has the extension folder and the extension defined.. Any solution
After much efforts and help of members of this forum i have installed ffmpeg, ffmpeg-php, gd on my server.. Now the purpose for which i have installed all this is to get the thumbnail of the videos..
I tried the code given on its homepage but thats not working..
I've been researching and thinking on offering it on our servers but I still have a few doubts. How resource intensive is it? Does it affect a shared environment too much?
I need to host some video materials and I don't want to use something big like a VPS or dedi, shared will be enough for me. That's why I think quillhost.com service will suit my needs well as they support ffmpeg on their shared service.
I was wondering if there was anyone out there that could do an ffmpeg, flvtool2, mencoder installation on my CentOS 5.2 VPS for $10. I need it to be able to run phpmotion / youtube clone scripts...
2- i have a music box and i have a large vistiros are my site in the workied good thats my site for media www.ms.ahba.in and i want convert to social media script
3- whats the limted for cpu

5- whats the limted for backup and the ((Automated Nightly Backups)) where are the backup file when well be?
6- are thee ssh include
7- and about vps if i want install scripr or update the apatchi for example did help me with out charge
I have just followed a manual online for installing ffmpeg in 5 minutes, I've been requested to enure the 3gp codec is installed, how can I install this codec?
after many painstaking hours, im at a loss as to where to go now (finally managed to get up to the point of running phpize in the ffmpeg directory)

Originally I thought i had compiled it in when compiling PHP,
Infact:
Code: './configure' '--disable-debug' '--disable-rpath' '--with-bz2' '--with-curl' '--with-gd' '--with-openssl' '--with-png' '--with-zlib' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-mysql' '--with-pear' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-magic-quotes' '--enable-sockets' '--with-ffmpeg=yes' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/sbin/apxs' But when i go to the tests/ffmpeg_test.php file I get:
Code: Warning: dl() [function.dl]: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/ffmpeg.so' - Cannot open "/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/ffmpeg.so" in /usr/local/www/apache22/data/tests/test_ffmpeg.php on line 17 Can't load extension /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20020429/ffmpeg.so I used the ports tree to install FFMPEG and here is the version info:

However, after I got phpize to work ( had to cp autoconf259 and autoheader259 to autoconf and autoheader since it was complaining about it ), it gave me this set of errors:

Stop in /usr/local/src/ffmpeg-php-0.5.0.
After I get all this working and install it on a another machine I plan on writing a guide for FreeBSD users inside the tutorials section - but this one part has stumped me.
The only thing I can think of is something along the lines of maybe i downloaded a 64 bit version of something along the way?
Should i continue along this route with phpize adding it as an extension, or does someone else have some information on that ffmpeg_test.php file?
I am developing a phpfox site and in order to use the video capabilities I need a host with ffmpeg installed.
My current host were a bit misleading and let me think I could pay them a small sum to install ffmpeg on a shared server and that would see to it. Turns out I would need to get a dedicated server, which was quite a shock when I saw the price of that.
I would like to know if shared servers with ffmpeg are worthwhile, or is a dedicated server generally regarded as the only way to go?
If success can be achieved with shared hosting, are there any hosting companies that would be recommended. Apthost is a name that seems to crop up quite regularly, but I don't know how to tell a good host from a bad host, so I'm asking you all!
P.S. My bandwidth needs shouldn't be more than 100gb/month at the start, but that is only a rough beginner's guess.
I am need a VPS plan which is good enough for handling such CPU intensive programs. I had already read reviews about solarvps,wiredtree and Hostv. I really liked offers from solarvps, but I am a noob when it comes to servers so please advice me hosting talk members. Plus I need full transfer support for my website from hostgator they are ridiculously expensive.
I have installed ffmpeg and php-ffmpeg. I am getting these messges while I run "make test" for php-ffmp

I was wondering, if installing ffmpeg-php is worth the trouble for shared hosting accounts or if it is too much of a resource hog. I had a couple of requests for that but I am not used to this extension.
