I have been a customer of BlueHost for a long time, but with the rise of user submitted video content coupled with the lack of the ffmpeg module I am forced to look elsewhere for hosting providers…
I have been researching web hosts that offer the ffmpeg module for video conversion to flv. In your opinion, which webhost is the highest quality in terms of price, up-time, speed, bandwidth, and file storage space in a shared hosting environment?
Please keep in mind that ffmpeg is necessary to the completion of my website…
Thank you in advance!
I spoke to support @ godaddy…they don’t support ffmpeg…so, yeah – don’t trust you.
ww.godaddy.com has all the answers that you seek. Trust me.
For shared hosting your gonna be out of luck, for one their will way to many users using it on the system that the system would be at a crawl the whole time, also they would have to set up some type of cue line for the conversion of movies, your best bet is to go dedicated if you wanna stream movies
http://www.hostamina.com – Highest quality provider I’ve ever had.
Not sure if they offer ffmpeg, but I would ask, they might make an exception for you and have it installed. They make custom plans/exceptions all the time. Plus, their servers are ridiculously fast!
I think they just switched layouts, so some pages may not be complete yet, but I would suggest shooting them an email.
Lunar pages doesn’t offer ffmpeg either, and I have had 4 clients move from them in the past month! They are AWFUL to work with! Can’t understand a word they say and they are paranoid that you are going to steal their servers or something.

I see they have ffmpeg hosting, but I have never used them.
Take care,
