I am using ffmpeg.ffprobe to get the duration data of the video on Node JS, but I am getting the error:
Cannot find ffprobe
function video_control(video) {
var path = video.path
ffmpeg.setFfmpegPath(require("@ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg").path);
ffmpeg.ffprobe(path, (err, metadata) => {
if (err) {
console.log(err);
} else {
const duration = metadata.format.duration;
console.log(duration);
}
});
}
By the way, I used this structure to get the duration data of the video, but I wanted to use ffmpeg because it created errors in some webm format videos.
const { getVideoDurationInSeconds } = require('get-video-duration')
getVideoDurationInSeconds(path).then(async (duration) => {});
@ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg only install ffmpeg for you not ffprobe, you need ffprobe-installer
And load it like below
ffmpeg.setFfprobePath(require("@ffprobe-installer/ffprobe").path)
