I am having problems getting ffmpeg working with your module. On centos 6 ffmpeg.0.6.5 is installed with the ffmpeg-php extension. I ran a ffmpeg-php test file to confirm it's working but my uploads fail with various ffmpeg related errors.
What version of ffmpeg does the video module require? I have trouble compiling ffmpeg-php with ffmpeg 0.8.5

the ffmpeg-php extension is not needed for the Video module, so I recommend to disable the extension. The module should work with most FFmpeg versions. Could you post the errors you are receiving?

I rebuilt the centos 6 64bit server, and installed ffmpeg 0.8.5 from the puias rpm repo and didn't compile ffmpeg-php and it works now using the flv preset at least! Still having trouble with libx264 but that's a different issue.
Thanks

Update on the above. ffmpeg 0.8.5 has a bug with x264. I downgraded to ffmpeg 0.6.5 and x264 encoding works!
Thanks for the great module.
