    Hi,

    I am searched & gone through some sites but I am unable to use ffmpeg in my php code for converting video files.


    - I have downloaded ffmpeg zip file where one of the dll file was to be copied in ext folder in php & make entry in php.ini file

    - And other 2 files were to bee copied to system32 folder.

    --- But could not get ffmpeg running.

    - In other tutorial, ffmpeg file should be complied using MSys & MinGw.
    But I am not getting it.

    --- Can anybody file me to use ffmpeg in php [in am using WAMP 1.6]

    Thanks.....

    I tried this once and got it working. This is how I did it.
    1> Find a ffmpeg.exe file. I am unable to find a direct link to the website, but do a google search and you will find this.
    2> To convert video:
    exec("path/to/ffmpeg full command");

    If / doesn't work, please try \ as path\to\ffmpeg
    It worked for me this way.
    regards :)
