PHP FFmpeg is a php/ajax/ffmpeg test case, demonstrating how to create a php script that works with FFmpeg and has a status update.

PHP FFMPEG Example

PHP FFMPEG Example is a PHP test-case written for a tutorial at MyOwnHomeServer.com.

It serves as an example of how to create your own PHP script with status/progress update polling via AJAX and executing FFMPEG on the server to convert your video.

How It Works

This was written to be ran on a Windows Apache/PHP server, such as XAMPP.

You'll first need to make some minor changes in config.php, mainly setting the FFMPEG_PATH constant to the correct location for your Windows computer.

Add a video file to your source folder, then you should be able to visit index.php from your web browser and run the conversion test.

A sample video can be downloaded from http://wp.me/a1Xgia-3W if you don't have one to test with.
