http://www.crucialp.com/resources/tutorials/server-administration/how-to-install-ffmpeg-ffmpeg-php-mplayer-mencoder-flv2tool-LAME-MP3-Encoder-libog.php is a long manual compile with outdated packages, so you’d need to acquire the URL’s to the most recent source code.

That should definitely help you.

Good luck.

If you still need help, I would suggest looking into a fully managed server company to have it done for you.
