ffmpeg install on CloudLinux with cPaenl

[v.dratsov]

I have a very basic query. Will appreciate any info on this.

I have asked my host to install ffmpeg on my server running CLOUDLINUX 6.8 x86_64 with cPanel.

How much time does it take to install ffmpeg?
My host has informed me that it would take 12 hours to complete the process. Prior to that they said 4 hours.

> As per the latest updates from the systems team we would like to inform you that the FFMPEG extension installation is in progress and as per the latest updates it will take another 12 hours for the entire installation to complete.

Does this take 12 hours???

The cloud linux documentation doesn sound that complicated !!

No, the installation takes just a few minutes:

- yum -y install epel-release && rpm -Uvh http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop...nux.noarch.rpm
- yum install ffmpeg --enablerepo=nux-dextop
- nano /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo (change 1s to 0s to disable this repo)
- yum install alt-php*ffmpeg
- Scott
