	 * @package PHPVideoToolkit (was called ffmpeg)
	 * @version 0.1.9
	 * @changelog SEE CHANGELOG
	 * @abstract This class can be used in conjunction with several server binary libraries to manipulate video and audio
	 * through PHP. It is not intended to solve any particular problems, however you may find it useful. This php class
	 * is in no way associated with the actual FFmpeg releases. Any mistakes contained in this php class are mine and mine
	 * alone.
	 *
	 * Please Note: There are several prerequisites that are required before this class can be used as an aid to manipulate
	 * video and audio. You must at the very least have FFMPEG compiled on your server. If you wish to use this class for FLV
	 * manipulation you must compile FFMPEG with LAME and Ruby's FLVTOOL2. I cannot answer questions regarding the install of
	 * the server binaries needed by this class. I had too learn the hard way and it isn't easy, however it is a good learning
	 * experience. For those of you who do need help read the install.txt file supplied along side this class. It wasn't written
	 * by me however I found it useful when installing ffmpeg for the first time. The original source for the install.txt file
	 * is located http://www.luar.com.hk/blog/?p=669 and the author is Lunar.
	 *
	 * @see install.txt
	 *
	 * @uses ffmpeg http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/
	 * @uses lame http://lame.sourceforge.net/
	 * @uses flvtool2 http://www.inlet-media.de/flvtool2 (and ruby http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/)
	 *
	 * @config examples/example-config.php Please edit this files in order for the examples to work.
	 * @example examples/example01.php Converts video to Flash Video (ie FLV).
	 * @example examples/example02.php Screen grabs video frames.
	 * @example examples/example03.php Compile a movie from multiple jpegs
	 * @example examples/example04.php Watermark a video.
	 * @example examples/example05.php Access media metadata without using the ffmpeg-php library.
	 * @example examples/example06.php Extract audio from video.
	 * @example examples/example07.php Join multiple videos together.
	 * @example examples/example08.php Easy video conversion to common formats using the adapters.
	 * @example examples/example09.php Shows you how to access the information about your ffmpeg installation.
	 * @example examples/example10.php Shows you how to extract a specific frame from a movie.
	 * @example examples/example11.php Shows you how to use the ffmpeg-php adapters to provide a pure php emulation of ffmpeg-php.
	 * @example examples/example12.php Shows you how to manipulate/format timecode strings.
	 * @example examples/example13.php This demonstrates how to simply create a FLV stream script.
