Hello! Have you resolved this one? I'm currently experiencing the same issue Unable to load FFMpeg

[vladislavzubetcs]

@0xCyyy3000 Yeah, I resolved that. But it's been so long, I honestly don't remember how, coz I haven't worked on this project in a long time. But I can give you something.

Packages:

"pbmedia/laravel-ffmpeg": "^8.3",
"php-ffmpeg/php-ffmpeg": "^1.1",

Usage:

use ProtoneMedia\LaravelFFMpeg\Support\FFMpeg;

FFMpeg::fromDisk('s3')
      ->open($this->url)
      ->export()
      ->toDisk('s3')
      ->inFormat($this->videoFormat->getFFMpegFormat()) // new \FFMpeg\Format\Video\WebM()
      ->save(sprintf(
          '%s%s',
          $this->url,
          $this->videoFormat->value
      ));

Try giving permissions to:

FFMPEG_BINARIES=/usr/bin/ffmpeg
FFPROBE_BINARIES=/usr/bin/ffprobe

Also check if you have ffmpeg and ffprobe installed and PHP has access to them.

That's all I have and all I remember, unfortunately.

I already resolved my problem, I just ran this command to retrieve the bin path which ffmpeg But thanks for sharing mate, appreciate your response!

[AbelGoncalo]

which ffmpeg

how did you solve

[0xCyyy3000]

You should add the bin path of your ffmpeg to your .env file. You can identify it by running this command from your terminal:

• which ffmpeg / which ffprobe for Unix
• where ffmpeg / where ffprobe for windox

Then in your .env FFMPEG_BINARIES={{ffmpeg_bin_path} FFPROBE_BINARIES={{ffprobe_bin_path}}
