i'm trying to instal ffmpeg-php from http://ffmpeg-php.sourceforge.net/ but i don't understand next line: cp ffmpeg-php /path/to/php_sources/ext where is located the "/path/to/php_sources/ext" folder?
At a guess I'd say they were asking for the path to the php files... ???? I'm not sure. Post a help ticket at sourceforge.
nope, ext is a folder in the actual source archive of php, it is assuming you're going to build it in that directory, probably because it needs header files to compile from source, those header files may not be included in your build of php if you don't have the correct extensions and configuration as it expects, so it's gonna be a case of checking your php version and downloading sources from php.net releases page, get the exact version and untar it on your server somewhere, then copy the ffmpeg source to the /ext folder under its proper extension name. It's all part of php's automatic build system for modules, and they assume you have the source laying about but infact most ppl do not ....
