A client of mine had a conversion script created which leveraged ffmpeg-php for identification of aspect ratio and other things, but then went to system() for the conversion calls. >> I thought of using FFMPEG but I have a bit of experience with it. system("ffmpeg -i $inputfile output.wav"); i think is really a basic example. tweak the audio specifics as you wish (man ffmpeg - it's got a ton of options) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
