Urgent problem with ffmpeg-php & localhost

PHP
1

hello ,

i installed ffmpeg-php in my localhost with php4.x (xammp software) , and it’s successfully installed and i see ffpmeg in phpinfo configurations page …

now i tried php code to get thumbinil image of swf file … i tried this code :


$mov = new ffmpeg_movie('0706171149164.swf'); 

$ff_frame = $mov->getFrame(30); 
if ($ff_frame) { 
    $gd_image = $ff_frame->toGDImage(); 
    if ($gd_image) { 
        imagepng($gd_image, 'thumbnails/mythumbnail.png'); 
        imagedestroy($gd_image); 
    } 



}

but i got this error messages :


Warning: Can't open movie file 0706171149164.swf in C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\a.php on line 17

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\a.php on line 19

with noting that the swf file is already in the same path with a.php file ، and on the line 19 is : $ff_frame = $mov->getFrame(30);

so what’s the problem , and how to solve it ? :blush:

First thing I’d check are the directory and file permissions. The user apache is running under needs permission to access that file.

Hello Dan,

To my knowledge, the extent of FFMpeg’s ability to open SWF files only goes as far as opening embedded FLV videos.
