ok, i am running the script like this now:
------------ START -------------
$var=shell_exec("/home/lansinplayer/server/apache/htdocs/lansinplayer/getfilelength.sh
/tmp/pitstop.mpeg");
echo "--$var--";
------------ STOP -------------
Where echo returns nothing. I did a chmod 777 on the getfilelength.sh file.
When i run the file in shell i get this:
$ /home/lansinplayer/server/apache/htdocs/lansinplayer/getfilelength.sh
/tmp/pitstop.mpeg
16
The Shell file looks like that:
if [ "$1" ];then
length="`mplayer -identify -frames 0 $1 2>/dev/null| grep ID_LENGTH
| cut -d \"=\" -f 2`"
echo $length
....

$var2=shell_exec("mplayer -identify -frames 0 /tmp/pitstop.mpeg | /bin/grep
ID_LENGTH");
gives nothing back.
Thats what i get in Shell:

$ mplayer -identify -frames 0 /tmp/pitstop.mpeg | grep ID_LENGTH
