Installing FFmpeg
Mixpost has the ability to generate images from video while uploading a video file. This would not be possible without FFmpeg installed on your server.
You need to follow FFmpeg installation instructions on their official website.
After installation, depending on the operating system, you need to set the ffmpeg_path
and ffprobe_path
in the Mixpost config file. Default folder path: /usr/bin/
. If FFmpeg is there, there is no need to change it.
If it is somewhere else, navigate to your Mixpost application and put this in your .env
file
FFMPEG_PATH=/usr/bin/ffmpeg
FFPROBE_PATH=/usr/bin/ffprobe
