upload.php blank after vid upload

[firstbyte]

Hi guys,

I've uploaded a video (2mb) and the page (upload.php) goes blank once the vid has been uploaded.

any idea what might be happening.

All the settings have been configured and all the plugins installed.

url:www.videonookie.com (adult site but has default template)

Cheers

Make sure your servers root setting match your .htaccess file. I just went thru a week of that happenming and it turns out the script was timing out because the server didnt match my htaccess file.

Your problem is ffmpeg or ffmpeg-php not properly installed.

Try running following PHP script in your server, it will not work

<?php

$path = "/home/videonoo/public_html/video/3.mpg";
$mov = new ffmpeg_movie($path);

echo "<pre>";
echo "
getDuration: "        . $mov->getDuration() .
     "
getFrameCount: "      . $mov->getFrameCount() .
     "
getFrameRate: "       . $mov->getFrameRate() .
     "
getFilename: "        . $mov->getFilename() .
     "
getComment: "         . $mov->getComment() .
     "
getTitle: "           . $mov->getTitle() .
     "
getAuthor: "          . $mov->getAuthor() . 
     "
getCopyright: "       . $mov->getCopyright() .
     "
getArtist: "          . $mov->getArtist() .
     "
getGenre: "           . $mov->getGenre() .
     "
getTrackNumber: "     . $mov->getTrackNumber() .
     "
getYear: "            . $mov->getYear() .
     "
getFrameHeight: "     . $mov->getFrameHeight() . 
     "
getFrameWidth: "      . $mov->getFrameWidth() .
     "
getPixelFormat: "     . $mov->getPixelFormat() . 
     "
getBitRate: "         . $mov->getBitRate() . 
     "
getVideoBitRate: "    . $mov->getVideoBitRate() .
     "
getAudioBitRate: "    . $mov->getAudioBitRate() .
     "
getAudioSampleRate: " . $mov->getAudioSampleRate() .
     "
getVideoCodec: "      . $mov->getVideoCodec() .
     "
getAudioCodec: "      . $mov->getAudioCodec() .
     "
getAudioChannels: "   . $mov->getAudioChannels() . 
     "
hasAudio: "           . $mov->hasAudio();

?>

Path of the video file is from your debug log

http://www.videonookie.com/templates_c/debug.txt

VIDEO LOCATION = /home/videonoo/public_html/video/3.mpg

You can point it to any available video file on server.

Hi Admin,

yeah your right, I tried the code and wasn't able to see anything.

The hosting guys said that they've installed ffmpeg on the server.
Is there a version of ffmpeg that i should have installed?

You can ask the server provider to run the conversion command on ssh prompt and see if conversion works.

It is always better download latest version from svn.

Hi Admin,

The test code you pasted seems to work now but the video doesn't seem to be converting the upload videos into the flv folder.

any idea where the issue might be?

From your last video upload, it seems ffmpeg-php is working.

The convert command is

/usr/bin/mencoder /home/videonoo/public_html/video/4.mpg -o /home/videonoo/public_html/flvideo/4.flv -of lavf -oac mp3lame -lameopts abr:br=56 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=flv:vbitrate=500:mbd=2:mv0:trell:v4mv:cbp:last_pred=3 -srate 22050 -lavfopts i_certify_that_my_video_stream_does_not_use_b_frames

Try running it from command prompt or php script to see if video is getting converted to FLV format, if not you have problem with mencoder installation.

the scripts seems to work when uploading .flv files but when i try to upload the .wmv and .avi files... there are no files being converted.

do i need to include in the config what file formats should be able to be converted?

mencoder/ffmpeg commands are used for converting video. You need to check if they are properly installed on your server and able to convert video.

You can get convert command used to convert video in templates_c/debug.txt
