A Laravel package that wraps PHP-FFMpeg to provide an elegant, testable API for video and audio processing, with deep integration into Laravel's Filesystem, configuration, and logging. It includes built-in support for HLS streaming (including encrypted HLS with rotating AES-128 keys), watermarks, frame exports, concatenation, and VTT preview thumbnails.
Use cases
- transcode uploaded videos to multiple bitrates in Laravel
- generate HLS streams for HTTP video playback
- extract thumbnails and preview sprites from videos
- add watermarks to videos programmatically
- create encrypted HLS streams with rotating keys
- process videos stored on S3 or other Laravel filesystem disks
- build a video platform with Laravel
When to choose
- you're building a Laravel app that needs video/audio transcoding
- you want HLS or encrypted-HLS streaming with minimal setup
- you want FFmpeg processing integrated with Laravel's filesystem (local, S3, etc.)
- you need frame exports, watermarks, or VTT preview thumbnails
When to avoid
- your project doesn't use Laravel or PHP
- you need direct, low-level control over FFmpeg command-line arguments
- you need live transcoding of real-time input rather than file-based processing
- you're not comfortable managing the FFmpeg binary on your server
