CodeIgniter Tutorial: Upload and Convert video to FLV using FFmpeg.


Today, I will show, how can we upload and convert a video file to flv using FFmpeg in CodeIgniter website. FFmpeg commands runs in Linux but in Window server we need to download FFmpeg.exe file from its site. Which we have to put in our site root folder. IF your server is Linux then you also need verify that your hosting server has FFmpeg installed or you need it to be installed. For checking FFmpeg availability print phpinfo() in any file and run this command on server where you will get PHP version and other server settings. Find FFmpeg on that window if it doesn’t found then it means server has no FFmpeg installed.

Here is uploading code of video file in CodeIgniter.

	// ffmpeg command to convert video
 
	exec("ffmpeg -i ".$directory_path_full." ".$directory_path.$file_name.".flv"); 
// $file_name is same file name that is being uploaded but you can give your custom video name after converting So use something like myfile.flv.
 
	/// In the end update video name in DB 
	$array = array(
		'video' => $file_name.'.'.'flv',
		);
	$this->db->set($array);
	$this->db->where('id',$id); // Table where you put video name
	$query = $this->db->update('user_videos');

PHP Encrypt/Decrypt: Simple class to encrypt url data

Author ZeeShaN    Category Codeigniter, PHP, Web Development     Tags

Encryption is useful where critical data is being transferred in url. I have found a simple and secure encryption class with some changes to make it fit for new users. You can use it in Codeigniter websites as well. Just copy it in application/libraries directory and use it in other libraries style.
Here is the code for encryption class.

class Encryption {
	var $skey 	= "SuPerEncKey2010"; // you can change it
 
    public  function safe_b64encode($string) {
 
        $data = base64_encode($string);
        $data = str_replace(array('+','/','='),array('-','_',''),$data);
        return $data;
    }
 
	public function safe_b64decode($string) {
        $data = str_replace(array('-','_'),array('+','/'),$string);
        $mod4 = strlen($data) % 4;
        if ($mod4) {
            $data .= substr('====', $mod4);
        }
        return base64_decode($data);
    }
 
    public  function encode($value){ 
 
	    if(!$value){return false;}
        $text = $value;
        $iv_size = mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB);
        $iv = mcrypt_create_iv($iv_size, MCRYPT_RAND);
        $crypttext = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $this->skey, $text, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $iv);
        return trim($this->safe_b64encode($crypttext)); 
    }
 
    public function decode($value){
 
        if(!$value){return false;}
        $crypttext = $this->safe_b64decode($value); 
        $iv_size = mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB);
        $iv = mcrypt_create_iv($iv_size, MCRYPT_RAND);
        $decrypttext = mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $this->skey, $crypttext, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $iv);
        return trim($decrypttext);
    }
}

You need to include this class any where in to make your data encrypted with simple encode() or decode() functions.
If you are using it in Codeigniter then use like this

$this->encrypt->encode('Your data');
$this->encrypt->decode('Your encrypted data');
