    hi,

    has anybody got any idea on this world how to install the ffmpeg player on my server?

    I have all the commands, but dont know whr to start from. it says login to SSH and type these commands..the question is how do I login to SSH?

    cd ~
    mkdir TEMP src bin bin/ffmpeg
    cd src/
    svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
    cd ffmpeg/
    export TMPDIR='/home/username/TEMP/'
    ./configure --prefix=/home/username/bin/ffmpeg
    # Your application may require extra configure options enabled to function correctly.
    # Run "./configure --help" for a full list of available options.
    # Contact the application vendor if you are not certain with this one.
    make
    make install


    thanks
    dave

    open the putty,write down the ip or one of the url which hosted on that server.Enter username(root) and the password.

    BUT ffmpeg and ffmpeg-php requires lots(yes LOTS) of things.mplayer etc.I was chargin 50$ per install but NOT this time,i hate installing that :D

    If you have questions feel free to ask

    took me awile to install ffmpeg+ffmpeg-php, depending on what you need it for you also need lame if your doing flv encoding.
    what os are you using ? if you have yum and don't need ffmpeg-php support you can just install with that to make things a bit easy.

    yum install ffmpeg

    Is it for clipshare? sharemixer? what are you trying to install it for? Pm me I can help you!
    I run www.wetubeforsports.com and I have all the modules installed on the server.
    It also has alot to do with the control panel you have do install it different if you have cpanel versus plesk etc.
