My platform is PHP JOOMLA MYSQL. I want to encode and load uploaded video files of different formats to .flv. I want this to implement in a video upload site where the users can see the videos in front-end after uploading and also I want to implement download options for them in mp4 and flv. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance to have a good reply for this

              You can use the powerful ffmpeg to encode the videos once they're uploaded to your server.
And here's a nice tutorial.

                At first I want to try it in my wamp server in my local, do you think the wamp server already had this ffmpeg installed so that I could run this above tutorial code there to get the video encoded with no other efforts

                I would imagine you have to install it first, it's a 3rd party plugin so chances are it doesn't ship with wamp. I could be wrong though! :)
