Video for HTML5 -- ffmpeg commands
- by StackOverflowNewbie
I'd like to allow my users to upload their videos (no clue what format they'll be) and convert them into the following formats:
MP4
Ogg
Webm
I think it's those 3 formats I need in order to support HTML5, at least per http://mediaelementjs.com/. I've tried various commands that I found on the web. Some of them worked, some of them used old syntax, some of them worked only on my computer and not others, some of them gave conflicting information, etc.
Are there any FFMPEG experts here that can provide the "proper" commands? I'm not particularly trying to achieve anything special. I just want to be able to convert the video into something playable on the web. Highest quality, smallest filesize, etc. are the basic goals.
Something that works without a lot of special configurations would be ideal, too. I ran into a lot of "missing presets" problems.
