How to install ffmpeg-php on a dreamhost shared host under a users account
This HOWTO now includes setup instructions for the following stuff:
- autoconf
- LAME
- ffmpeg
- GD2
- mplayer+mencoder
- Ruby
- flvtool2
- libogg
- libvorbis
- PHP
- ffmpeg-php
Disclaimer: Some of you might not be able to make it all work due to various reasons, that does not mean it cannot be done.
For installation assistance please also read The install prerequisites page where we list the requirements for the server setup. Clip-share, vshare, alstrasoft, social media are all scripts which we have setup successfully on Dreamhost, Bluehost, godaddy and many other shared hosting environments (as on 10May2007)
Rayzz, PHPMotion and OSTube also successfully deployed on shared hosts (as on 10August 07)
