Converting videos to .swf with ffmepg or else
Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2008 10:31 am
Dear all,
I have a web page where some friends upload videos (.mov, .wmv, .mp4 and .3gp).
I want to convert these videos into .swf and play them in my page.
Somebody told me about ffmpeg. I've downloaded it and I have no idea if its the good thing to use, and how to use it.
My web server is Linux based .. Can ffmpeg convert the videos online or I have to use it locally and them upload the swf to my web server??
I have a PC with Windows XP and little knowledge of Unix. I don't even know how if Unix can be used in a PC with just Windows XP installed or if there's any program to emulate it.
I do not know how or where to start .. please help!
Thanks a lot in advance!
