Questions tagged [ffmpeg-php]

Refers to a few similarly named PHP extensions that add functions for accessing and retrieving information about multimedia files. Questions about generally using ffmpeg cli tool through exec() or similar or other libraries should not use this tag!

ffmpeg-php refers to a few similarly named PHP extensions that add functions for accessing and retrieving information about multimedia files:

  • FFmpegPHP: a pure OO PHP port of the legacy ffmpeg-php writer in C.

  • PHP-FFMpeg An Object-Oriented library to convert video/audio files with FFmpeg.

  • ffmpeg-php: The classic, legacy version. This is a very old, long dead project that will not work with any ffmpeg versions officially supported by the FFmpeg project.

Note that these extensions are not part of the FFmpeg project.

You may not need a wrapper/extension/library if you simply want to invoke the ffmpeg binary from your PHP script. Refer to FFmpeg Wiki: PHP for more info.
