i'm having trouble with shell_exec. according to php.net the output of the command is returned by shell_exec(), but this is not the case. i've tried exec,passthru and system but can't get the output into a variable.
$ffmpeg = escapeshellcmd('ffmpeg -i "'.$uploadPath['orgVideo'].$org.'"');
$tmp = shell_exec($ffmpeg);
echo "\n\n";
print_r($tmp);
echo "\n\n";
i'm executing this code from the console: "php fileadmin/php/cron.php"
output in console:
