Message:

i have already installed the laravel-ffmpeg via composer in my project

composer require pbmedia/laravel-ffmpeg

then i added class to config/app.php file as documentation says

// config/app.php

'providers' => [

    ...

    ProtoneMedia\LaravelFFMpeg\Support\ServiceProvider::class,

    ...

];



'aliases' => [

    ...

    'FFMpeg' => ProtoneMedia\LaravelFFMpeg\Support\FFMpeg::class

    ...

];

then publish this config file

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="ProtoneMedia\LaravelFFMpeg\Support\ServiceProvider"

now my question is to use this package in my project, how should i use this into my controller
i saw many post and ques regarding this and i get these

use FFMpeg;

use FFMpeg\FFMpeg;

use Pbmedia\LaravelFFMpeg\FFMpeg;

use ProtoneMedia\LaravelFFMpeg\FFMpeg;

.

.

.

which one is correct, my goal is to trim a video, but which one works for that i am so confused

//config/laravel-ffmpeg.php

<?php



return [

    'ffmpeg' => [

        'binaries' => env('FFMPEG_BINARIES', 'ffmpeg'),

        'threads'  => 12,

    ],



    'ffprobe' => [

        'binaries' => env('FFPROBE_BINARIES', 'ffprobe'),

    ],



    'timeout' => 3600,



    'enable_logging' => true,



    'set_command_and_error_output_on_exception' => false,

];

please help me out, thanks in advance

My Answer:
[
// Other providers
Pbmedia\LaravelFFMpeg\FFMpegServiceProvider::class,
]

'aliases' => [
// Other aliases
'FFMpeg' => Pbmedia\LaravelFFMpeg\FFMpegFacade::class,
]

__Now, you can use FFMpeg in your Laravel controller by importing the facade and using it like this:__

php
use FFMpeg;

public function convertVideo()
{
FFMpeg::fromDisk('videos')
->open('video.mp4')
->export()
->toDisk('converted_videos')
->inFormat(new X264)
->save('video_converted.mp4');
}


__Make sure to replace the disk names and file names with your actual values.__
