I have a video/media sharing script fully installed on my server. Everything works, including the database, EXCEPT for the most important thing; it will not play the videos even though it uploads them successfully!

I did some research on the script (I just don't know a lot about what is required to make videos, etc, work on web servers) and discovered the following:

=======================================================
Other then PHP / MySQL / GD that are already installed on most servers or hosting packages, our script requires the following modules used for video converstion and thumbnail generation:

- FFmpeg (http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu)
- FFmpeg-PHP (http://ffmpeg-php.sourceforge.net)
- Mplayer + Mencoder (http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.HTML)
- flv2tool (http://inlet-media.de/flvtool2)
- Libogg + Libvorbis (http://www.xiph.org/downloads)
- LAME MP3 Encoder (http://lame.sourceforge.net)
=======================================================

I contacted my web host and asked about having the referenced modules installed. He said that ALL of the modules were available, however, it would require that I log in to my CPANEL and install them.

I'm still not real comfortable with CPANEL but I logged in and looked. The problem is, I don't have a clue as to what I'm looking at! I decided to not touch a thing and ask a SL programmer who knows what they are doing to see if they can make it work.

PLEASE, PM me with ANY questions you may have!

Thank you!
