FFMPEG Convert HTML 5 Video NOT Working

Question

I am using FFMPEG to convert a video to .mp4, ,ogg, .webm so that it may be viewed in all HTML5 capable browsers using the video tag

Answer 1

I would try this code first. It is as simple as possible.

Creating mp4 files, minimal number of arguments. Unfortunately, I haven't tested it much.

    ffmpeg -i input_file -vcodec libx264 -vpre medium output_file.mp4

To creating ogv files You should use ffmpeg2theora. There are too many problems with ffmpeg.
