How to Install FFmpeg on my server. also i have the ffmpeg file how to install in my server.please help me
To install FFmpeg on your server, first, if you already have the FFmpeg binary file, upload it to a directory like /usr/local/bin/
or /opt/ffmpeg/
using FTP or SCP. Then, give the file execution permissions with chmod +x ffmpeg
and move it to /usr/local/bin/
for global access using sudo mv ffmpeg /usr/local/bin/
. Afterward, verify the installation by running ffmpeg -version
in your terminal. If you don’t have a binary file and prefer to install FFmpeg from a repository, you can use your system’s package manager. For Ubuntu/Debian, use sudo apt install ffmpeg
, and for CentOS/RHEL, use sudo yum install ffmpeg
after enabling the EPEL repository. Alternatively, if you need to compile FFmpeg from source, you’ll first need to install necessary dependencies like build-essential
, yasm
, and pkg-config
. Then, download the FFmpeg source, extract it, and compile it with the ./configure
, make
, and sudo make install
commands. Once done, verify the installation again with ffmpeg -version
.
