Ffmpeg Improved Windows Media Browsing Tutorial
Yesterday’s Ffmpeg Mux Video and Audio Windows Media Browsing Tutorial taught us a lesson, as a side issue, that what we said when we presented Animated GIF Creation on Windows MAMP via PDF Tutorial …
No matter how we tried, we could not get a Windows command line command like …
forfiles /P "[PathToFileBestGuess]" /S /M "[FileBaseName]" /C "cmd /c echo @path@fsize" | find "[FileSizeInBytes]"
… to work out a file path when supplied a file base name and a file size and you call as above with starting folders. That works well (for deriverability (if that is a word!)) in the “cmd” window but not when called under the auspices of PHP exec or shell_exec. It could be that you lose a lot of a Windows user environment when asking PHP to do some operating system work.
… was “only partially” the story. We found out that that ” | find ” command piping could cause problems on Windows MAMP using shell_exec or exec to do some operating system functionality. But before your enthusiasm oozes over the edges, Windows “forfiles” is still very hard to get working with PHP shell_exec or exec, even using PHP to perform that ” | find ” filtering of results.
However, on revisiting the issue in the changed voiceover.php PHP (we’d want you to download to a local MAMP Apache web server’s Document Root folder and which you can run that PHP there) there were dual purpose motivations going on, for us, because our changed animated GIF creator PHP tutorial_to_animated_gif.php (that if you download to MAMP would best go to Document Root PHP/animegif folder along with the wonderful GIFEncoder.class.php … thanks) inhouse animated GIF creator web application and the changed PDF parts to animated GIF creation helper php_calls_pdfimages.php (also a standalone proposition) PHP code could be fixed up at the same time, with a new PHP ourshell_exec function interventional code snippet up at the top …
<?php
function ourshell_exec($onea, $twoa = NULL, $threea = NULL) {
$folder='';
$pattern='';
$size='';
$filesa=[];
if (PHP_OS =='WINNT' || PHP_OS =='WIN32' || PHP_OS =='Windows' || (strpos(('~@!' . $onea), '~@!forfiles /P "') !== false && strpos(('~@!' . $onea), '/M "') !== false && strpos(('~@!' . $onea), 'find "') !== false)) {
$folder=explode('"', explode('forfiles /P "', $onea)[1])[0]; // . substr(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, 0, 1);
if (7 == 7) {
$folder=explode('"', explode('forfiles /P "', $onea)[1])[0]; // . substr(DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, 0, 1);
$pattern=explode('"', explode('/M "', $onea)[1])[0];
$size=explode('"', explode('find "', $onea)[1])[0];
$thiscmd=trim(explode(" | find ", $onea)[0]);
if (strpos($pattern, ' ') === false) { $thiscmd=str_replace('/M "' . $pattern . '"', '/M ' . $pattern, $thiscmd); }
if (strpos($folder, ' ') === false) { $thiscmd=str_replace('/P "' . $folder . '"', '/P ' . $folder, $thiscmd); }
if (strpos($thiscmd, '"cmd /c ') !== false && substr($thiscmd,-1,1) != '"') { $thiscmd.='"'; }
if (strpos($thiscmd, "/P C:\\ ") !== false) {
if (strpos($thiscmd, "/P C:\\ ") !== false) {
if (strpos($pattern, " ") === false) {
$thiscmd="DIR C:\\" . $pattern . " /S /-C";
} else {
$thiscmd="DIR \"C:\\" . $pattern . "\" /S /-C";
}
}
}
//file_put_contents('xxx.xxx',file_get_contents('xxx.xxx'). "\n" . '' . $size . ' ' . $thiscmd);
$nofind=shell_exec($thiscmd . ' 2> nul');
//file_put_contents('xxxx.xxxx',file_get_contents('xxxx.xxxx'). "\n" . '' . $size . ' ' . $nofind);
//exit;
$findings=explode("\n", $nofind);
$bitbefore='';
for ($ifindgs=0; $ifindgs<sizeof($findings); $ifindgs++) {
if (strpos(str_replace("\r","",$findings[$ifindgs]), 'Directory of ') !== false) {
$bitbefore=explode('Directory of ', str_replace("\r","",$findings[$ifindgs]))[1] . "\\";
}
if (strpos((str_replace("\r","",$findings[$ifindgs]) . '~'), $size . '~') !== false) {
return str_replace('~','',str_replace($size . '~', '', (str_replace("\r","",$findings[$ifindgs]) . '~')));
} else if (strpos((str_replace("\r","",$findings[$ifindgs]) . ''), $size . ' ') !== false) {
//file_put_contents('xxxxx.xxxxx',$bitbefore . explode($size . ' ', (str_replace("\r","",$findings[$ifindgs]) . ''))[1]);
return $bitbefore . explode($size . ' ', (str_replace("\r","",$findings[$ifindgs]) . ''))[1];
}
}
if ($folder == "C:\\") { return ''; }
}
// more code
// as per usual
// stays here ...
}
return shell_exec($onea, $twoa, $threea);
}
?>
… where we substitute in Windows DIR C:\ /S /-C thinking in place of forfiles (via shell_exec minus the ” | find ” piping, that is).

You know it’s “Intranet feely land”?
You look out the train window (tee hee) and see macOS racing through their usual routine.
Of course you’ll pick the buffet car containing the rice bubbles ahead of the vegemite corn flakes?!
But do we need to reiterate that in “Intranet feely land” you’ve got your macOS typose of work not suiting “arch Windows” methodologies? Take the case of …
At least, with macOS MAMP there is the excellent command line “file” we can use to show information about some potential input files you could use in this, so far, user unfriendly, “first draft” version of the PHP.
… to the beach, would be nice … but we digress. Well, in any case, we asked Google (not via the “arch Window”) does windows have the equivalent of linux file command” and got to the helpful What is the equivalent to the Linux File command for windows? – Super User, thanks, and then ended up at the really useful third party “file.exe” for (non-arch) Windows usage and proceeded with it, working off Ffmpeg Mux Video and Audio Media Browsing Tutorial, to start being able to develop this “reveal” details/summary arrangement in either macOS or Windows MAMP environments, that “ffmpeg” voiceover command, which normally works a lot better than …
I command thee mux, hey you, with audible you, over yonder, by dale and meadow be, yea!
… when it occurred to us we could turn the base filename parts of those “file.exe” reports into links that when clicked mapped those clicked files into place into the “ffmpeg” command being developed above (as alternative input file designator idea to browsing or div contenteditable=true typing ways), in the changed voiceover.php PHP (we’d want you to download to a local MAMP Apache web server’s Document Root folder) and which you can run that PHP there.
And so, we reckon the work day got worth it!

… reign supreme collecting their media file specification information in the changed voiceover.php PHP (we’d want you to download to a local MAMP Apache web server’s Document Root folder) and which you can run that PHP there.
The previous work of Animated GIF Creation Install Paths Tutorial‘s thread of blog postings has been a great help with this ffmpeg “Intranet feeling” integration work we use, around here, in conjunction with macOS or Windows operating system MAMP Apache local web server environments.

We’ve got another “Intranet feeling” PHP web application “first draft” for you today. The reason we’re opting for “Intranet feeling” (ie. we’re asking you to download the voiceover.php PHP to a local MAMP Apache web server and run the PHP there from its Document Root folder) is that we want to further explore the brilliant …

… we got inspired to try via Mux Video and Audio from another Video and FFMPEG mux video and audio (from another video) – mapping issue … thanks and thanks … to add audio to a video stream from two different sources.
At least, with macOS MAMP there is the excellent command line “file” we can use to show information about some potential input files you could use in this, so far, user unfriendly, “first draft” version of the PHP.
