• Video conversion with ffmpeg to target Android and iOS mobile devices

  17 novembre 2017, par Lee Brindley

  I’m building a react native app for both Android and IOS, the back-end API is written with NodeJS.

  Users may upload video from their phones, once uploaded the user and their friends will be able to view the video - so the videos need to be stored in a format which is playable on both Android & IOS.

  My question relates to the conversion of video, uploaded by the user. I developed a similar app a couple of years ago ; I used the repo node-fluent-ffmpeg which provides a nice API to interact with FFmpeg.

  In the previous project (which was a web app), I converted the uploaded videos into two files, one .mp4 and one .webm - if a user uploaded an mp4, then I would skip the mp4 step, likewise if they uploaded a .webm.

  This was kind of slow. Now I’ve come across the same requirement years later, after some research I think I was wrong to convert the videos to the last project.

  I’ve read that I can simply use FFmpeg to change the container format of the videos, which is a much faster process than converting them from scratch.

  The video conversion code I used last time went something along the lines of :

  var convertVideo = function (source, format, output, success, failure, progress) {
  
  
  
      var converter = ffmpeg(source);
  
  
  
      var audioCodec = "libvorbis";
  
  
  
      if (format.indexOf("mp4") != -1) {
  
          audioCodec = "aac";
  
      }
  
  
  
      converter.format(format)
  
          .withVideoBitrate(1024)
  
          .withAudioCodec(audioCodec)
  
          .on('end', success)
  
          .on('progress', progress)
  
          .on('error', failure);
  
  
  
      converter.save(output);
  
  };

  Usage :

  Convert to mp4 :

  convertVideo("PATH_TO_VIDEO", "mp4", "foo.mp4", () => {console.log("success");});

  Convert to webm :

  convertVideo("PATH_TO_VIDEO", "webm", "foo.webm", () => {console.log("success");});

  Can anyone point out a code smell here regarding the performance of this operation ? Is this code doing a lot more than it should achieve cross-platform compatibility between IOS and Android ?

  Might be worth mentioning that support for older OS versions is not such a big deal in this project.

• ffmpeg-php module fails in linux

  26 juillet 2017, par Swati

  I’ve been trying this for a couple of days now. I am trying to install ffmpeg-php on my CentOS server.

  OS : CentOS 6
  PHP : 5.5
  ffmpeg : 1.2.1
  ffmpeg-php : 0.6.0
  The ffmpeg installation went on without a hitch and I am able to convert files back and forth via the CLI.

  While installing ffmpeg-php, I encountered errors while making (after configuring) due to time.h references which was corrected by renaming the files creating with an extension .loT to .lo (as rightly pointed out here)

  Once this was done, the make process went on smoothly and the make install went through without a hitch. However, after specifying the extension=ffmpeg.so in the php.ini file and after restarting Apache, the module doesn’t load or show up in phpinfo().

  The Apache error log shows only "PHP Warning : PHP Startup : Invalid library (maybe not a PHP library) ’ffmpeg.so’ in Unknown on line 0" and nothing else.

  make test also shows the same error and FAILS the associated tests. I’ve checked here which wasn’t very helpful. Also, I read somewhere that it may be the issue with permissions but the permissions for the ffmpeg.so file is 755.

  Any help is appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.
