Well I think its really neat...
Over the last hour or so I've been playing around with ffmpeg, its a really good tool, I hear you can also use it for "youtube" clones but that was not really what I was after.
I was looking for some way to get the length of an audio/video file and after searching I came accross ffmpeg. An hour later I had coded what I wanted and way more, now I also had a way to get a frame out of a video file and turn it into a graphic to show a preview before someone downloaded it.

As you can see there is a preview of half way through the video file, pretty neat ay :hehe:
And better yet it checks to see if there is Audio in a video file and displays the bitrate of the audio and the length of the movie.
Try it yourself, upload any movie file to uploadwiz.com
I'm going to be writing a tutorial soon as I was looking for one while I was coding this and could not find any so thought I would make it easier for people looking to code using ffmpeg in the future.
