    Default avi not converted to the flvideo directory

    When i try to watch the avi I uploaded the image shows up but when i click on the player it goes black and shows loading but never plays.
    (it works fine with the flv videos i upload).

    I check http://windesire.com/video/video and I can see the avi uploaded

    I check http://windesire.com/video/flvideo and I can see that THERE IS NOT THE FLV CONVERTED.

    I checked the debug.txt and it shows the record of all videos I uploaded.

    I created the convert.php, uploaded and run it. And it appears the following:
    Last line of the output:
    Return value: 127

    My server administrator tells me that everything works fine in the server.

    Can anybody please tell me WHAT TO DO NEXT?

    All due respect, I believe your administrator is incorrect. Your php info page shows that you have ffmpeg and ffmpeg-php installed, so it sounds like mencoder is installed incorrectly.

    Try the instructions here to use ffmpeg instead of mencoder (pretty simple swap in the script):

    and if that works, you know Mencoder is not mencoding.

    manel, if video is not getting converted, problem is with the mencoder (or ffmpeg) used to convert video.

    mencoder is a program, that only work if it is installed properly. Some times, it is installed from RPM on linux, can be old version. So better run the conversion command on your server and see if it works.

    You can find more details at
