Question

I am using the following code for uploading videos

    $img1 = $_FILES['video']['name'];

    if (!empty($img1)) {

        $fname = $_FILES['video']['name'];

        $img_name1 = "video/" . $fname;

        if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES['video']['tmp_name'], $img_name1)){
            $new_name = ShowFileName($fname);

             $output = 'video/'.$new_name.'.flv';

             $command = "$ffmpegpath  -i $img_name1  -s 486x368 -b 400kb  -ac 1 -ar 44100 -r 25 -s 320x240 -f flv $output";
             $command = $ffmpegpath.' -i'.$img_name1.' -s 486x368 -b 400kb  -ac 1 -ar 44100 -r 25 -qmin 3 -qmax 5 -y '.$output;
             exec($command);

             $thumb_dir = 'video_thumbs/';

             $thumb = $new_name.'jpg';

             exec($ffmpegpath .' -i '.$img_name1.' -an -y -f mjpeg -ss 0.05 -vframes 1 '.$thumb_dir.$img_name1);
             unlink($img_name1);
        }
     }

It is working properly.ie Successfully moving video into videos folder and insering video name to database table. But the problem is related to the thumb image of this video. Thumb name was insert into database but the image wasn’t uploding to the video_thumb folder…….
please help me….

Answer 1

The only problem I see is with the file name in the ffmpeg command line. If it contains special chars you should use escapeshellarg().
php function escapeshellarg
