Video Hosting - Fedora 5 Server Configuration (Optimized for Dedibox servers)

Video Hosting - Fedora 5 Server Configuration (Optimized for Dedibox servers)
I found it quite hard to get up to date information on how to configure properly a video hosting server on Fedora.

Here is a quick tutorial to tell you every single step I used after setting up my server with fedora core 5 (bordeaux). My hosting provider is Dedibox. It is designed for beginners to follow the step by step; but advanced users will surely know which steps to skip !

This will help you installing:

    * Fmpeg (http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu)
    * FFmpeg-PHP (http://ffmpeg-php.sourceforge.net)
    * Mplayer + Mencoder (mencoder is now built into the mplayer svn release )
      (http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html)
    * flv2tool (http://inlet-media.de/flvtool2)
    * LAME MP3 Encoder (http://lame.sourceforge.net)
    * Libogg + Libvorbis (http://www.xiph.org/downloads)

REQUIREMENTS

First, here are all the packages I needed on my fresh FRESH INSTALL of FC5

    yum install subversion
    y
    yum install ruby
    y
    yum install gcc
    y
    yum install ncurses-devel
    y
    yum install gcc-c++
    y
    yum install php*dev*
    y


You'll need the Livna repository to install mplayer so let's set it up now:

    vi /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo


Then in Vi, press the key "i" and copy and paste this:

    [livna]
    name=Livna for Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Base
    baseurl=http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
    http://livna.cat.pdx.edu/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
    http://wftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/livna/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
    http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
    #mirrorlist=http://rpm.livna.org/mirrorlist
    enabled=1
    gpgcheck=1
    gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-livna

    [livna-testing]
    name=Livna for Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Testing
    baseurl=http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.lvn-testing
    http://livna.cat.pdx.edu/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.lvn-testing
    http://wftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/livna/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.lvn-testing
    http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.lvn-testing
    #mirrorlist=http://rpm.livna.org/mirrorlist-testing
    enabled=0
    gpgcheck=1
    gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-livna


Save your file by pressing "esc" and:

    :wq


Once Vi exited let's import the GPG Key for this repository:

    wget rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
    rpm --import RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
    rm -rf RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
