I'm searching for a precompiled ffmpeg binary for a shared hosting on all-inkl.com.
I have tried different binaries from many sites even from http://ffmpeg.org/download.html.

I always get the error message:
FFmpeg (of unknown version) was found in /www/.../gallery3/bin

Maybe someone has an idea.

@stack - it's not really an error message; it just says that we can't figure out the version number. This isn't too surprising, as there are many different formats that various builds use to get the version number.

If you upload a movie, does it generate a thumbnail? If so, then FFmpeg works and just its version number is tricky; if not, then FFmpeg isn't working.

Hey shadlaws,

thanks for the hint, I have tried all binaries of the Link of suprsidr and always: "FFmpeg (of unknown version) was found in /www/.../gallery3/bin".
Know I try to upload some movies... thanks.

I have tried all ffmpeg files from the recommented list of suprsidr.
Maybe someone can tell me if I have to upload the complete folder of ffmpeg or just the file of ffmpeg into /bin???

Thanks

@stack - you only need the ffmpeg binary file, so that's not the issue. Does your host allow user-uploaded executables? I've seen this occur with other folks, and this was the reason. To test, go into a terminal window, go to the bin directory, and type "./ffmpeg" to try and get the normal help/version info. While you're there, double-check that the permissions are set at 0755.

Take care,
Shad
