NodeJs - Fluent-FFMPEG 找不到 FFMPEG

Question

Situation:

Run mp3-to-video with fluent-ffmpeg and ffmpeg on windows and nodejs. command used to startup server: nodemon server.js When starting up, it executes mp3-to-video function. Then calls fluent-ffmpeg and i debugged it down to the line where fluent-ffmpeg cannot find my ffmpeg package. I did add a couple of system variables. FFMPEG_PATH is included, PATH is included, and all the different directories like ffmpeg\\ and ffmpeg\\lib\\

I dont know what to do.. I get this error:

Error: Cannot findd ffmpeg

Answer 1

You could perhabs install this node module "ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg". You can find it here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg

It will install ffmpeg on your system and node should be able to use it immediately.

Hope this answer helps you and other people :-)

EvilBurrito saved the day on this one. Just wanted to add, make sure use this require:

const ffmpegPath = require('@ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg').path;
const ffmpeg = require('fluent-ffmpeg');
ffmpeg.setFfmpegPath(ffmpegPath);

Answer 3

你可以运行npm i @ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg
