nickharambee Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Hi, I have limited experience of using PHP, but having done some searching around it would seem that it is possible to convert audio files that are uploaded through a web page to mp3 using ffmpeg. The audio files would be uploaded using the Uploadify script to subfolders that are named according to the user's login. I would need the PHP script to be able to process all audio files that are either not in MP3 format, or are in MP3 format but greater than 192kbps, deleting the original file after the conversion. Am I right in thinking that this could be achieved using PHP, and if so, can anyone get me started with some code, or a link to a webpage with some code? Also, I am currently using Hostpapa for hosting my website, and I understand that they don't include ffmpeg, and also don't allow ssh. I read on one website that I could still install a compiled version of ffmpeg on a shared server, but I am not sure if this means that it would work on Hostpapa, or whether I would need to change my host to get ffmpeg working. Any advice on any of this would be welcome! Thanks, Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
