Install ffmpeg on centos server - ffmpeg

while installing ffmpeg on my centos server.I get this error while running ./configure: checking for ffmpeg headers... configure: error: ffmpeg headers not found. Make sure ffmpeg is compiled as shared libraries using the --enable-shared option
cd /usr/local/src
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ffmpeg-php/ffmpeg-php/0.6.0/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0.tbz2?use_mirror=nchc
tar -xjf ffmpeg-php-0.6.0.tbz2
phpize
./configure
make make
install

Try using ffmpeg auto installer, you need to dounload a package with required plugins, its free,
you can refer this link for demo

Here you will get complete installation package

It will take around 30 mins for complete installation, you just need to keep an eye on command prompt.

You can Install FFMPEG on CENTOS by just Downloading rpm package of ffmpeg from ffmpeg.org and place at a particular location in ur Centos Server.
by Configuring the binary you can easily use ffmpeg commands.
Hope this Will help you :)

I hope this helps.
If ever you're trying to install ffmpeg to CENTOS 7, you might want to try this since this is what I did since I have a unsolvable problems with my packages.
Download compressed ffmpeg and extract it to the server: https://www.johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/ in this case I used ffmpeg-git-amd64-static.tar.xz.
Extract the xz file. cmd: tar -xf filename.tar.xz
Extract the tar file if it's still in tar file. cmd: tar -xvf filename.tar
Go to the extracted file’s directory.
You must see these files under the folder
Try the command ./ffmpeg -version
Add it to the environment variable so that you can use the ffmpeg globally. Assuming that the ffmpeg main folder is contained in usr/ffmpeg, get the original PATH value using the command: echo $PATH , copy the original path value add it with the path of the ffmpeg directory (e.g. :usr/ffmpeg) and add it to the PATH environment variable with the command: export
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin:/usr/ffmpeg
You should be able to use the ffmpeg command now with cmd: ffmpeg -version
Try to convert files now example: cmd: ffmpeg -i input.webm output.mp4 and it should all work now.

How do I use ImageMagick to convert webp file(s) to jpg in Linux (Ubuntu 22.04) terminal

I'm trying to convert a file with the magick command-line tool but I'm confused about what the error means and how to fix it.
I used the following code syntax:
magick <input>.webp <output>.jpg
I get this error:
magick: delegate failed `'dwebp' -pam '%i' -o '%o'' # error/delegate.c/InvokeDelegate/1911.
magick: unable to open file '/tmp/magick-PGSTH7P1-9rGkrCgVJrwRyuTCjBoRkrJ': No such file or directory # error/constitute.c/ReadImage/780.
The file I'm converting is in my current directory, and I'm not using a filename for which is already being used in the directory. I've made sure my spellings are correct, and my file types are correct as well.
There were no errors during installation either:
Testsuite summary for ImageMagick 7.1.0-40
I'm running this on a Virtual Machine (Ubuntu 22.04)
I tested this again and found I needed:
sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config webp libwebp-dev libwebp7
Then you need to follow the remainder of the instructions to build from source:
./configure
make -j 4
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib

How do I incorporate FFMpeg into Laragon Local Server?

I need to use FFMpeg on my project to automatically generate thumbnails from videos uploaded to my site. I understand you need FFMpeg to do this. I can't seem to find any information on how to install FFMpeg into the Laragon Local Server. I found older tutorials on how to install FFMpeg into Xampp for example, but they are now out of date as the latest FFMpeg uses different file structures etc. Anyone know how to install FFMpeg to Laragon?
#Kevin K:
It is very simple to use FFMpeg with Laragon. Here's how:
Download the binaries:
https://github.com/BtbN/FFmpeg-Builds/releases/download/autobuild-2021-06-01-13-18/ffmpeg-n4.4-19-g8d172d9409-win64-gpl-4.4.zip
Unzip and move the 3 files in bin to C:\laragon\bin
ffmpeg.exe
ffplay.exe
ffprobe.exe
Open Laragon's Terminal Menu > Laragon > Terminal and check:
ffmpeg -v
You should use FFMpeg in your PHP code with library like:

How to install ffmpeg on CentOS 6

I have been trying to install ffmpeg for 2 days now and had no luck. I have tried countless videos on youtube, step by steps on google with no luck. Any help would be great.
I have a Centos 6 server.
Yes I am using root ssh in terminal on mac.
Commands I tried are:
wget http://mirror.ffmpeginstaller.com/old/scripts/ffmpeg8/ffmpeginstaller.8.0. tar.gz
tar -xvzf ffmpeginstaller.8.0.tar.gz
cd ffmpeginstaller.8.0
./install.sh
Static build
Easiest method is to download a recent version that is already compiled.
Download a static build of ffmpeg from https://www.johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/
Extract the archive file you just downloaded from the above site
(optional) Copy or move the ffmpeg file into /usr/local/bin
Compile
If you prefer to make a custom build you can compile. See FFmpeg Wiki: Compile FFmpeg on CentOS.

how to install libx265 for ffmpeg build on centos 7

When I try to compile ffmpeg with libx265 (./configure --enable-gpl --enable-libx265), it is getting error as: (ERROR: x265 not found using pkg-config). How to install libx265 and get configure with ffmpeg.
There are two solutions to your problem.
A)
If there are no libx265 available on CentOS 7 then you'll have to build it yourself. It follows the pretty straightforward method of configure/make.
Using mercurial:
hg clone http://hg.videolan.org/x265
cd x265/build/linux
./make-Makefiles.bash
make -j6
make install
ldconfig
Then be sure to specify the path libx265 was installed to when building ffmpeg. With pkg-config: PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig".
B)
But it appears there are rpm entries for x265 on CentOS 7:
http://pkgs.org/centos-7/nux-dextop-x86_64/x265-devel-1.2-6.el7.nux.x86_64.rpm.html. If they are compatible on your system you should be able to simply install instead of building.
I wrote a script for Ubuntu recently, but I think it can be applied to CentOS. You need to comment off the Ubuntu apt-get in the script in order to get it running.
Also before you use it, please ensure that you have git and mercurial installed. My script pulls the latest copy of necessary libraries from either from git or mercurial.

ffmpeg (avcodeclib) & png support

I'm building ffmpeg libraries on Windows with a --enable-decoder=png switch. However, after successful build, there is no png support. Any ideas what went wrong?
For me the issue was Zlib, FFmpeg will only include PNG support if Zlib is found
wget zlib.net/zlib-1.2.8.tar.xz
tar xf zlib-1.2.8.tar.xz
cd zlib-1.2.8
make -f win32/Makefile.gcc install \
PREFIX=$HOST- \
DESTDIR=$PREFIX \
BINARY_PATH=/bin \
INCLUDE_PATH=/include \
LIBRARY_PATH=/lib
Example
I am assuming you are using Cygwin. Most probably you do not have libpng installed in your Cygwin installation. To install, you need to launch the "setup.exe", which is what you have used to install your Cygwin environment, and find "png" under the installation package. Update and you are ready to use png with your ffmpeg program.
