Does this keep the original file on the server space? If so where would it be stored? For my purposes I would need to unset the file

@khemistryify yea it keeps them on the disk. My suggestion, is to have it output everything to a temp folder. Then when you have one you want to keep, move it out. Then truncate the entire temp folder.

Thanks for sharing. I have just 1 question whish is better: using PHP-FFMEG or directly using ffmpeg for images? I use php-ffmpeg and i don't know whish one is better. sorry for my english :)

@chahrazad2fr php-ffmpeg is just a class to help work with ffmpeg. Since i know how to use ffmpeg from the command line, its easier for me not to install the extension and just use shell_exec
