How to remove audio from video

[kodfire]

How can I remove audio from video? My code is:

FFMpeg::fromDisk('local')
->open($filePath.$fileName)
->export()
->toDisk('local')
->mute()
->inFormat(new \FFMpeg\Format\Video\X264('libmp3lame', 'libx264'))
->save($converted);

Why do you think the mute method would work?

[kodfire]

Why shouldn't it?! There is a modification here in:
PHP-FFMpeg/PHP-FFMpeg@fb533ba

but after adding that no result :( it says method not found!

You should call that method on the VideoFilters object:

FFMpeg::fromDisk('local')
    ->open($filePath.$fileName)
    ->addFilter(function ($filters) {
        $filters->mute();
    })
    ->export()
    ->toDisk('local')
    ->inFormat(new \FFMpeg\Format\Video\X264('libmp3lame', 'libx264'))
    ->save($converted);

Searching all the code for mute = 0 result. Trying to use the Filter ->mute() = "message": "Call to undefined method FFMpeg\\Filters\\Video\\VideoFilters::mute()",

I need to create a muted video so that it can autoplay when loaded on a page. Is it possible to simply pass flags to ffmpeg (-an)?

The mute() filter was never merged into the underlying library. You can do it manually:

FFMpeg::open('bg.mp4')
    ->export()
    ->addFilter('-an');

Unrelated to this package, but I think you can autoplay videos by adding a mutedattribute to the video element in HTML:

<video muted autoplay loop playsinline>
    <source src="bg.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
