PHP-Video-Upload-Chain is a simple tool for processing uploaded videos in order to obtain the desired formats, sizes, qualities, preview images, thumbnails, and animations.

The script is based on PHP-FFMpeg and requires a local installation of ffmpeg, lame, and libaacs-dev.

On Debian or Ubuntu these packages can be installed in the following way: sudo apt-get install ffmpeg lame libaacs-dev

All PHP-related dependencies should be installed using Composer.
