Converting video to flv format with ffmpeg works locally but does not work on server

I want to convert video to FLV format. I am using ffmpeg to convert video. I am using the following code.

exec("C:/wamp/www/newtip/ffmpeg/ffmpeg -i C:/wamp/www/newtip/ffmpeg/videos/".$name." -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 C:/wamp/www/newtip/ffmpeg/players/".$name_s.".flv");

It works correctly on the local system. But it doesn't work properly on the server.

On the server, I changed the code below

exec("http://www.mydomain.com/newtip/ffmpeg/ffmpeg -i http://www.mydomain.com/newtip/ffmpeg/videos/".$name." -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv -s 320x240 http://www.mydomain.com/newtip/ffmpeg/players/".$name_s.".flv");

In local I gave the source path as C: / wamp / www / newtip / But on the server I gave the path as http://www.mydomain.com/newtip/ . I think the path on the server is wrong. Can anyone tell me how to point the path on the server?

Try to point to the correct directory and also point to the document root with:

$path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . "your required folder path here";


Make sure that:

  • The folder has the required permissions, chmod is 755
  • exec

    not disabled.

You are confusing paths and urls. http://www.mydomain.com/newtip/ffmpeg/ffmpeg

Use the full path (something like ... /home/username/mydomain.com/newtip/ffmpeg/ffmpeg

) instead . As Sarfraz recommends, you can use $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']

to find the root for your path.

exec()

runs on PHP which runs on the server, so use the path as if you were actually running it on the server with local paths.

I had the exact same problem, it turned out to be a codec.

-acodec mp3

runs on local server but requires a server -acodec libmp3lame
