While you try to compile this baby, you might run into this error: /usr/local/src/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0/ffmpeg_frame.c:336: error: ‘PIX_FMT_RGBA32’ undeclared (first use in this function) No worries, this is easily fixed with this command: sed -i ‘s/PIX_FMT_RGBA32/PIX_FMT_RGB32/g’ ffmpeg_frame.c Now run “make” again and you got yourself a working ffmpeg-php!
