Then download rpmforge-release

rpm -Uhv http://packages.sw.be/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.1-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm
yum clean all
yum update
yum install ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel
yum install mplayer mencoder
yum install gcc gmake make libcpp libgcc libstdc++ gcc4 gcc4-c++ gcc4-gfortran

yum install flvtool2*

Run svn checkout:

svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk ffmpeg
svn checkout svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk mplayer
cd /usr/local/src/mplayer
svn update
cd /usr/local/src

Copy codecs for mplayer:

mv /usr/local/src/essential-20061022/* /usr/local/lib/codecs/
chmod -R 755 /usr/local/lib/codecs/

If you are using secure tmp:

mkdir /usr/local/src/tmp
chmod 777 /usr/local/src/tmp
export TMPDIR=/usr/local/src/tmp

For ffmpeg-php

wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ffmpeg-php/ffmpeg-php/0.6.0/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0.tbz2?use_mirror=nchc
tar -xjf ffmpeg-0.5.2.1.tbz2
phpize
./configure
make
make install

FFmpeg :: make: *** [ffmpeg_frame.lo] Error 1

If you get the following error when running the command make to compile FFmpeg, that means ffmpeg was either installed or previously compiled on your server .

Go into the source’s directory and run the following command.

make distclean
or
make clean

Then rebuild ffmpeg again.

Testing FFmpeg

Verify that FFmpeg is working properly by running the following two commands:

#php -r ‘phpinfo();’ | grep ffmpeg

You will get a few lines similar to the following:

ffmpeg
ffmpeg-php version => 0.6.0-svn
ffmpeg-php built on => April 15 2010 15:31:45
ffmpeg-php gd support => enabled
ffmpeg libavcodec version => Lavc51.62.0
ffmpeg libavformat version => Lavf52.18.0
ffmpeg swscaler => disabled
ffmpeg.allow_persistent => 0 => 0
ffmpeg.show_warnings => 0 => 0

This is the second command to make sure that FFmpeg is working properly:

#/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg

FFmpeg error

FFmpeg error

After installing FFMpeg , when you execute the command : ffmpeg or ffmpeg -v, you may receive an error.

ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.50:

Resolution :

Execute the following command :

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:LD_LIBRARY_PATH

But this value will be cleared once you log off that session.

So it is better to save this value in bashrc.

vi .bashrc
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

svn update

Copy Codecs for mplayer

mv /usr/local/ffmpeg/essential-20061022/* /usr/local/lib/codecs/
chmod -R 755 /usr/local/lib/codecs/

We also need to secure the tmp directory

mkdir /usr/local/ffmpeg/tmp
chmod 777 /usr/local/ffmpeg/tmp
export TMPDIR=/usr/local/ffmpeg/tmp
