Hi There,
I have an issue with FFMPEG not being found despite having installed it.

Debug Information:

array (
  'reading_from_cache' => false,
  'ffmpeg-found' => false,
  'compiler' => 
  array (
  ),
  'binary' => 
  array (
  ),
  'ffmpeg-php-support' => false,
  'raw' => '



',
)

Whereis Result

root@webserver [~/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0]# whereis ffmpeg
ffmpeg: /usr/bin/ffmpeg /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg /usr/share/ffmpeg /usr/share/man/man1/ffmpeg.1.gz

PHP Info:

root@webserver [~/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0]# php -i | grep ffmpeg
ffmpeg
ffmpeg-php version => 0.6.0-svn
ffmpeg-php built on => Jan  3 2013 12:18:25

ffmpeg swscaler version => SwS0.11.0
ffmpeg.allow_persistent => 0 => 0
ffmpeg.show_warnings => 0 => 0
PWD => /root/ffmpeg-php-0.6.0

I have tried all of the paths listed in whereis

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the issue is?

Issue was exec() being disabled, enabling this fixed the issue.

I've made a patch for this, but it doesn't work. Posting here in case anyone cares to review -- I plan to tackle this more in depth soon.
