What is FFmpeg hosting?

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

Basically, FFmpeg can be defined as a computer program designed for the manipulation of audio or video of digital formats. Broadly speaking, FFmpeg hosting is a very special and exclusive hosting program meant for the hosting and sharing of websites of video formats.

FFmpeg hosting is exclusively utilized by online websites that use or utilize video formats to interact with people all over the world. For the purpose of displaying video files in their website, they will have to rely upon several different scripting languages such as phpmotion, You tube clones etc. The matter lies in the fact that all of these scripting languages have to have the stupendous support of several different video software and library functions including FFmpeg hosting to function or to display the online video files. Hence, FFmpeg hosting turned out to be an unavoidable entity when the matter concerns to successful display of video formats all round the globe.

Hence, hosting companies are forced to make their servers to support FFmpeg hosting to accomplish the same. But the interesting fact is that many of the hosting companies in the online arena are reluctant to go for FFmpeg hosting simply because the expense to accomplish FFmpeg hosting is a wee bit too much amicable to the expensive side of their budget scale. This is the reason why many of the hosting companies are reluctant to incorporate the FFmpeg hosting technology in their list of programs their server continues to give.

As mentioned, by employing the endless chances of FFmpeg hosting, an online directory or a website can afford to show their online video files all round the globe. While majority of such sorts of video files could be displayed with the help of FFmpeg hosting for free, it should be remembered that there are video files supported by FFmpeg hosting for which people will have to pay to view the online video.

FFmpeg and the magic of Video on your site.

Monday, March 12th, 2007

By popular demand, we have introduced FFmpeg across all of our Shared Hosting platforms.

What is FFmpeg?

FFmpeg is a collection of software libraries that can record, convert and stream digital audio and video in numerous formats. It includes libavcodec, an audio/video codec library used by several other projects, and libavformat, an audio/video container mux and demux library. The name of the project comes from the MPEG video standards group, together with “FF” for “fast forward”.[1]

The project was started by Fabrice Bellard (using the pseudonym “Gerard Lantau”), and is now maintained by Michael Niedermayer. Most FFmpeg developers are also part of the MPlayer and VideoLAN projects, and FFmpeg is hosted at the MPlayer project server.

FFmpeg is developed under Linux, but it can be compiled under most operating systems, including Microsoft Windows. There are no formal releases. Instead, FFmpeg developers recommend using the latest Subversion snapshot as development maintains a constantly stable trunk. Released under the GNU Lesser General Public License or GNU General Public License (depending on which sub-libraries one would include), FFmpeg is free software.
