When I have video uploaded I get the following error:

Deprecated function: Function ereg() is deprecated in video_ffmpeg->get_dimensions() (line 258 of D7/sites/all/modules/video/transcoders/video_ffmpeg.inc).

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in video_transcoder->generate_thumbnails() (line 61 of D7/sites/all/modules/video/includes/transcoder.inc).

I read that the ereg() function is no longer used in PHP 5.3 . Instead, the preg_match function should be considered.

Same for 7.x-1.0-alpha1 version.

Deprecated function: Function ereg() is deprecated in video_ffmpeg->get_dimensions() (line 258 of /sites/all/modules/video/transcoders/video_ffmpeg.inc).

In video_ffmpeg.inc
line 258:

    // Get dimensions
    $regex = ereg('[0-9]?[0-9][0-9][0-9]x[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]?', $ffmpeg_output, $regs);

replace with

    // Get dimensions
    $regex = preg_replace('[0-9]?[0-9][0-9][0-9]x[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]?', $ffmpeg_output, $regs);

This has been added to the dev release, please test the dev release and update the status here. Changing the need review

Notice: Undefined variable: regs in video_ffmpeg->get_dimensions() (line 259 of sites/all/modules/video/transcoders/video_ffmpeg.inc).

Is it connected with http://drupal.org/node/1103942 ?
