How Can I force mp4 to convert to .flv

[scwebmaster]

I noticed that .mp4 videos stay in .mp4 format. How can I change the code to force the script to convert all .mp4 files to .flv

Hai

which vshare version you are using?

Thanks

I am currently running version 2.7

[vshare]

Hi,

This fix only for vshare 2.7
open file include/functions_upload.php
find

if ($file_extn == 'mp4')
            {
                $rand_flv_name = $rand_name . '.mp4';
                $outExtn = '.mp4';
            } 

replace

/*
if ($file_extn == 'mp4')
            {
                $rand_flv_name = $rand_name . '.mp4';
                $outExtn = '.mp4';
            }
*/ 

again find

if ($file_extn == 'flv' || $file_extn == 'mp4') 

replace

if ($file_extn == 'flv') 

Thanks

What about for version 2.8.1?

Hi,

Open include/settings/video_format.php

change mp4 instead flv

$video_output_format = 'flv';

Thanks

I am using 2.8.1 and in my video_conversion.php there is no lines to edit like what you show above. I have this:

<?php


$cmd_ffmpeg = "$config[ffmpeg] -i '$video_src' -acodec libmp3lame -ar 22050 -ab 32 -f flv $video_flv";


# For old version of mplayer
# $cmd_mencoder = "$config[mencoder] '$video_src' -o $video_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";


# For latest version of mplayer
$cmd_mencoder = "$config[mencoder] '$video_src' -o $video_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 -ofps 24 -vf harddup";


# Convert video to mp4
$cmd_mp4 = "$config[ffmpeg] -i '$video_src' -acodec libfaac -ab 96k -vcodec libx264 -vpre hq -crf 22 -threads 0 -b 500k $video_flv";


$convert_mp4 = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_3gp = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_mov = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_asf = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_mpg = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_avi = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_mpeg = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_wmv = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_rm = $cmd_mencoder;
$convert_dat = $cmd_mencoder;

How do I make my vShare convert all the different file formats that get submitted into flv?
