I need to run the ffmpeg command in the PHP.
But php-ffmpeg is no more supports the latest version and out of date.
May i know alternate way to run the ffmpeg command in the webfile (PHP,Javascript,jQuery).
I try the exec() and shell_exec() in the PHP file but gets the blank output.
echo shell_exec("/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i test.mp3 -codec:a libmp3lame -b:a 128k out.mp3");
and
echo shell_exec("ffmpeg -i test.mp3 -codec:a libmp3lame -b:a 128k out.mp3");

ffmpeg outputs on stderr, so you need to redirect the output. Add 2>&1 to your command line:
echo shell_exec("/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i test.mp3 -codec:a libmp3lame -b:a 128k out.mp3 2>&1");
Then you will see the output.
use FFMpeg\FFMpeg, you can install with composer: "php-ffmpeg/php-ffmpeg": "0.5.*@dev" (FFMpeg\FFMpeg Git Repository)
Or
use Symfony Process, you can install with composer: "symfony/process" : "~2.0" (Symfony Process Documentation)
Or
use proc_open() function.
FFMpeg\FFMpeg used Symfony Process and Symfony Process used proc_open() function :)
I prefer to use Symfony Process:
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
use Symfony\Component\Process\Process;
$process = new Process('ls -lsa');
$process->run();
first you have to install ffmpeg library in your server. with out install ffmpeg in your server command will not run.
the following link will help you
then after run this command
exec("ffmpeg -i test.mp3 -codec:a libmp3lame -b:a 128k out.mp3");
