FFmpegPHP is a pure OOPSR-4 compatible PHP port offfmpeg-php library (that was written in C). It adds an easy to use,object-oriented API for accessing and retrieving information from video and audio files.It has methods for returning frames from movie files as images that can be manipulatedusing PHP image functions. This works well for automatically creating thumbnail images from movies.FFmpegPHP is also useful for reporting the duration and bitrate of audio files (mp3, wma...).FFmpegPHP can access many of the video formats supported by ffmpeg (mov, avi, mpg, wmv...)

FFmpegPHP can be used as a drop in replacement forffmpeg-php library.

FFmpegPHP API documentation can be found herehttp://char0n.github.io/ffmpeg-php/.

• PHP >=7
• PHP extensions: gd, mbstring, xml
• ffmpeg or ffprobe

Grab the source code located insrc/ directory and use it as you seem appropriate.

Grab thecomposer.phar which can install packages published onpackagist.

 $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/composer/getcomposer.org/1b137f8bf6db3e79a38a5bc45324414a6b1f9df2/web/installer -O - -q| php

This command will create file calledcomposer.phar.

Create a file calledcomposer.json and paste the following JSON into it:

 {"require": {"char0n/ffmpeg-php":"^3.0.0"    } }

Install the FFmpegPHP by running the following command:

$ php composer.phar install

After this command is successfully executed, the new directory calledvendor/ is created.File structure of your current working directory should now look like this:

 - composer.json - composer.phar - vendor/

To verify that everything works as expected create new file calledtest.php inside your current workingdirectory with the following content.

<?phprequire_once'./vendor/autoload.php';useChar0n\FFMpegPHP\Movie;$movie =newMovie('./test.mp4');var_dump($movie->getDuration());

Before you run the script you need to also download the testing movie file:

$ wget https://github.com/char0n/ffmpeg-php/raw/master/tests/data/test.mp4

Now run it.

$ php test.php

The output should be something similar to the following:

float(32.14)

Note

Notice the first line (require './vendor/autoload.php';) in the above script. This line isnecessary because it configures how the FFmpegPHP will be included into your scripts and itauto-magically knows where to look for FFmpegPHP.

FFmpegPHP is build using PSR-4 standard and it's interface is purely Object Oriented. We're using standarOOP patterns to create our API.

useChar0n\FFMpegPHP\Movie;$movie =newMovie('/path/to/media.mpeg');$movie->getDuration();// => 24

On top of our OO interface, there is an additional one that provides full compatibility with originalffmpeg-php library.

useChar0n\FFMpegPHP\Adapters\FFMpegMovieasffmpeg_movie;$movie =newffmpeg_movie('/path/to/media.mpeg');$movie->getDuration();// => 24

GoDaddy started to use FFmpegPHP as part of it's servicesfrom November 2018. If you need a server withffmpegandFFmpegPHP installed on itcontact GoDaddy and they'll do it for you as part of its "Expert Service".As author of FFmpegPHP I agreed to provide support for users comingfrom GoDaddy asking about FFmpegPHP. All incoming GoDaddy customers,please useGitHub issuesas a support channel.
