Repl.it and FFmpeg

Question

Hi I am building a discord bot and would like to use ffmpeg in it but am working on repl.it. How can I use ffmpeg on repl.it if I can?

This is for translating a .webm file into an .mp4 file, running on python 3.7.4. I have had a look on the repl.it forums and on Stack Overflow but cannot find any information.

Thanks!

You can download i686 of ffmpeg compressed file from this link.

After downloading it, extract it, then upload the ffmpeg file inside to your repl.it project.

You can use the replit built in shell

chmod +777 ./ffmpeg

After that, type in

ffmpeg [command]

into the shell
