I managed to fix the error but I need to know the locations ffmpeg, flvtool2 and mencoder. According to the installation diognistic they are installed but I need to know their locations. Their defaults pre-entered are all within /usr/bin/ but I can't see them in there so does anybody know where else those modules may be installed?
Your web host support should be helpful there.
From the shell, do:
To see each folder that is searched for commands.
You can then just search each folder like:
ls /usr/bin | grep "ffmpeg\|flvtool2\|mencoder"
or to search all in one go, something like:
echo $PATH | sed s/\:/\ /g | xargs find | grep 'ffmpeg\|flvtool2\|mencoder'
the above takes the system path and searches each directory in there for ffmpeg, flvtool2 and mencoder.
On the shared hosting I use, I got:
/usr/bin/ffmpeg
/bin/flvtool2
Of course, you could have those binaries in a folder not added to the system path, so you'll can either use "find" to search around, or just:
ls | grep 'ffmpeg\|flvtool2\|mencoder'
In folders you think it may be in.
