    Hi there, I have the holiday shared hosting plan which includes ffmpeg, but when installing boonex dolphin it gave me this error...

    flash/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe Non-Executable

    I thought there was something I needed to do to install the ffmpeg, but it seems after reading several of the posts in here that it should be already active.

    Can someone please shed some insight to what I need to do to get this working?

    Thanks in advance

    Russell =)

    OK, so I got a response back from Vexxhost (but I'm still clueless here...) which was as follows:

    nstant ffmpeg installer/ vidiscript/ phpmotion Hello,

    Thank you for your message.

    All of the utilities needed and required for a video sharing website are already preinstalled on our servers. You may configure your script using the following information so that your site can encode video properly, these are all the utilities preinstalled on the server that can encode video. You may check for an application by referencing by it's name, example, if you're looking for FFMPEG, then you would use the following path: /usr/local/cpffmpeg/bin/ffmpeg

    ALSO...

    I had someone from boonex reply to me (but I'm also clueless here to what I'm supposed to do to resolve this). Here is what they said.

    Dolphin includes a ffmpeg binary for Linux in the form of ffmpeg.exe, meaning you do not need to configure the path for it, since the script already has a working copy. The issue you are having ("Non Executable") is due to the lack of sufficient permissions for the binary, which should be the following, depending on your web server configuration:


    SuPHP: 755
    Other PHP: 777


    Your web hosting provider must also allow the executing of files. Since this company apparently provides solutions for video sharing scripts, you should not encounter this issue.




    Thanks in advance for your help in getting this resolved =)
