That will be a nightmare for someone who hasn't got experience of compiling things from source.</p> <p>I'm about to write a HOWTO on setting up an Ubuntu GNU/Linux home web server, I could write a companion article about ffmpeg if you like. It will involve a bit of command line action, but it'll be easier than you think (often it's literally copy-and-paste commands). I can't really help with the Windows stuff unfortunately.</p> <p>If you just need a local copy to fiddle with what I've got in mind should be fine. It'll be easier than trying to compile/install it on a Windows system in my opinion. For example, to install FFMPEG on my home system all I have to do is type:</p> <p><code>sudo apt-get install ffmpeg</code>'</p> <p>It's as simple as that. I could also use the graphical installer in case anyone reading this has command-line phobia. <img src="https://www.webmaster-forums.net/misc/smileys/smile.png" title="Smiling" alt="Smiling" class="smiley-content" /></p> Thu, 12 Apr 2007 21:00:05 +0000 JeevesBond comment 1217809 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
