Answer by Mike
FFmpeg is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. Some people use it when they’re trying to build a niche YouTube-like website.
Most shared web hosts do not support FFMPEG modules or flvtools because they are too processor intensive.
I believe the planet hosting does support FFmpeg. Read a review about the planet here –
