sunnylo Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 As titled. Can ffmpeg be installed on Tommy?
wolstech Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 FFMpeg is notorious for causing high load (video conversion is extremely resource intensive). Also, keep in mind that exec() and it's equivalents are disabled, so you'll need the extension if you're using PHP. Buying a VPS is a better choice if you're planning to do video conversions. That said, the lighter features of ffmpeg (like the file information tools) have been used successfully here in the past. What version of PHP are you going to be using it with (or are you not using PHP)?
sunnylo Posted February 20, 2020 Author Posted February 20, 2020 I'm not using PHP. I'm just trying to deploy a music player for YT with this library https://www.npmjs.com/package/youtube-audio-server which requires ffmpeg
wolstech Posted February 20, 2020 Posted February 20, 2020 Oh, node.js application. Lets see if Krydos can get this installed.
Krydos Posted February 22, 2020 Posted February 22, 2020 It is now installed at /usr/bin/ffmpeg. Keep an eye on your load, and don't be too surprised if you end up suspended.
sunnylo Posted February 24, 2020 Author Posted February 24, 2020 I'll keep an eye on the load. Thanks for that
