STP/Video/Server guys help...
 

i'm getting this error when encoding videos...

Does anyone know wtf i need to do to make shit work? STP says the server techs need to fix it and the server techs say STP techs need to fix it leaving me pretty much fucked. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

where is the error? thats juist the cmd line for the encode.

That's what shows up in the Error column :X

And here's what I get in shell with process_video.php -debug -test

there was also this in shell

Compiler did not align stack variables. Libavcodec has been miscompiled
and may be very slow or crash. This is not a bug in libavcodec,
but in the compiler. You may try recompiling using gcc >= 4.2.

shapoopy!

Run the command via SSH and see what it says. It's 100% for sure a server/ffmpeg problem. Think of it this way; If it was a problem in the coding of STP, there would be no way it would work on as many servers and sites as it has to this point.

The stuff I posted is what came out of ssh :/

and here's the output of videotest.php (too big to post here)

I am really sorry bro, we really want to help but this is just beyond us :( It has nothing to do with STP, i will try to get Bepe to help with this today as well, maybe that can speed up things a bit.

Thanks Konrad

No problem, i'm no stranger to argueing with hosts over ffmpeg either :1orglaugh

:-) ffmpeg can bite soooo fucking hard..

and let's not even get started on ffmpeg-php

Please, lets not :1orglaugh

Thanks :)

I had this same problem with STP for a long time... frustrating as shit... host claimed stp was using an outdated version of ffmpeg that was calling outdated commands, while STP admins insisted it had to do with host. After installing 3 different version of ffmpeg, thought we had finally fixed the problem... but nope... thankfully the site is now sold (and I think the new owner prefers mechbunny)

The next time I create a tube site... if there is a next time, Ill ask the STP admins for a host recommendation... if it still doesnt work on a host of their choice, Ill probably explode... this shit used to frustrate the shit out of me (just read their support forums)
