[raulb]

So I had installed fffmpeg and fltvtool2 to encode videos server side using a php script on a unix server using red hat. But I keep running into an error. When I run this

/home/ebaitbiz/www/ebait_images/cNr373Vbe1
ffmpeg -i /home/ebaitbiz/www/ebait_images/cNr373Vbe1/2010_Big_Rock_Beer.wmv -ar 22050 -ab 32000 -f flv -s 320x240 - | flvtool2 -U stdin /home/ebaitbiz/www/ebait_images/cNr373Vbe1/2010_Big_Rock_Beer.flv

I get the following error and the encoding never finishes

# ffmpeg -i /home/ebaitbiz/www/ebait_images/cNr373Vbe1/2010_Big_Rock_Beer.wmv -ar 22050 -ab 32000 -f flv -s 320x240 - | flvtool2 -U stdin /home/ebaitbiz/www/ebait_images/cNr373Vbe1/2010_Big_Rock_Beer.flv
bash: flvtool2: command not found

So I thought, ok I didnt instlal flvtool2 right. When I did, after I installed ruby, I get this error

>> -- snip --
>> ERROR: undefined method `&' for "\u0005":String
>> ERROR: /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p0/gems/flvtool2-1.0.6/lib/flv/stream.rb:399:in `read_header'
>> -- snip --

So I'm wondering if maybe I did not install this right or?

Any insight will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Probably a version mismatch between flvtool2 and something else or a bug in flvtool2. Try upgrading flvtool2 and ruby
