    Hello,
    What kind of hosting are you utilizing? Understand that if you're going to be utilizing FFmpeg and other required codecs you are going to want to look more into a VPS or Dedicated Server. I might be able to help you with that if needed.

    Once you have said VPS/Dedicated Server, utilize the following tool;

    That is correct. Keep in mind that the encoding of videos requires not only a great amount of space, but also a great amount of resources to be able to do so without affecting the way your content is being served. I would personally recommend a Dedicated Server for production environment, however, to get eveything setup as this takes time, a VPS should do what you need it to do.

    If you got a vps/dedicated server download ffmpeg and place it in your server follow these in the ssh terminal:
    download ffmpeg and place it in your server
    tar -xvjf ffmpeg-0.5.tar.bz2
    ./configure
    make
    su -c 'make install'


    If you have a shared hosting ask your provider to install it for you.
