Encoded video not saving

  • I have an issue with the thrumbnails are generating and saving but the videos aren’t. Here is from the logs:

    Mon, 06 Apr 2015 22:11:47 +0000 ->
    Mon, 06 Apr 2015 22:11:47 +0000 -> Video file was not converted. Possible reasons: missing libraries for ffmpeg, permissions on the directory where the file is being written to…
    Mon, 06 Apr 2015 22:11:47 +0000 -> Thumbnail was created: /var/www/htdocs/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/ffmpeg_test_video1.jpg

    When I run the command:
    ffmpeg -codecs | less

    I can see libx264 in there, but I don’t see libfaac. Would it be called libfaac or would it be called anything else?

    Dear griff4594,

    Sorry for delay with reply.
    libx264 is the video codec, while libfaac is an audio. Both are needed in order to encode the video correctly. However, you have options when it comes to audio codecs: libfaac, libfdk_aac, aac, and libvo_aacenc.

    You could also try to use libmp3lame (which is an audio codec for mp3 files) if you don’t have any of the above.

    Hope it helps.

    Best regards,
    Alex
