Automated installation script of MediaSPIP
25 avril 2011, parTo overcome the difficulties mainly due to the installation of server side software dependencies, an "all-in-one" installation script written in bash was created to facilitate this step on a server with a compatible Linux distribution.
You must have access to your server via SSH and a root account to use it, which will install the dependencies. Contact your provider if you do not have that.

Screen Recording with FFmpeg-Lib with c++
27 janvier 2020, par BaschdelI’m trying to record the whole desktop stream with FFmpeg on Windows.
I found a working example here. The Problem is that some og the functions depricated. So I tried to replace them with the updated ones.But there are some slight problems. The error "has triggered a breakpoint." occurse and also "not able to read the location."
The bigger problem is that I don’t know if this is the right way to do this..My code looks like this :

Error : Output format mp4 is not available
12 avril 2024, par alpaca pwaaI'm using fluent-ffmpeg in my nextjs application, I'm trying to process the video and specified a format to stream on my s3 bucket but it keeps on failing. My terminal keeps on throwing "Error : Error : Output format mp4 is not available". I already verify my ffmpeg format "ffmpeg -format" and confirm that it supports encoding and decoding mp4 files. I've already tried solutions from other forums but it's not working for me.
