Failed to fetch frame XXXXX

There are two possible causes for this:

1) Your movie was not completely uploaded.  If this happens, the beginning of the movie file reports that you have X number of frames, and ffmpeg-php isn't able to seek to that specific file.  Please double check that this file is completely uploaded and wasn't truncated.

2) This may be a problem with ffmpeg-php.  You can confirm this with the following PHP code:

Note - be sure to change FULL SERVER PATH TO VIDEO FILE to your actual video file path.

Note - be sure to change FRAME NUMBER to the frame number used.

 ini_set("display_errors", "on");
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

$pth = "FULL SERVER PATH TO VIDEO FILE
";
$frameid = FRAME NUMBER;

if (!file_exists($pth))
{
echo "Cannot find file $pth";
exit;
}
  
$movie = new ffmpeg_movie($pth);
$frame = $movie->getFrame($frameid);

if (!$frame)
{
echo "Failed to fetch frame $frameid from $pth";
exit;
  } 

$gd = $frame->toGDImage();

echo "done";
exit;

If this is the case, your host will have to recompile / fix ffmpeg-php.
