title: Installation of FFMPEG for Python in WIndows
body: <p>I'm trying to use <a href="https://github.com/senko/python-video-converter" rel="nofollow">this</a> python video converter and I couldn't even run the test. I read in the manual that I had to install FFMPEG separately so I did (I created the folder in C:\, the enviroment variable "path" and tested it and worked) but still doesn't work.</p>
  
  <p>When I run the command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>python setup.py test
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "setup.py", line 51, in &lt;module&gt;
      packages=['converter'],
    File "C:\Python27\lib\distutils\core.py", line 151, in setup

  <p>When I run this example code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from converter import Converter
  c = Converter()
  
  info = c.probe('test1.ogg')
  
  conv = c.convert('test1.ogg', '/tmp/output.mkv', {
      'format': 'mkv',
      'audio': {
          'codec': 'mp3',
          'samplerate': 11025,
          'channels': 2
      },
      'video': {
          'codec': 'h264',
          'width': 720,
          'height': 400,
          'fps': 15
      }})
  
  for timecode in conv:
      print "Converting (%f) ...\r" % timecode
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "C:\Users\USER\worspace_pyth\cosa\prueba1.py", line 3, in &lt;module&gt;

      raise FFMpegError("ffmpeg binary not found: " + self.ffmpeg_path)
  converter.ffmpeg.FFMpegError: ffmpeg binary not found: ffmpeg
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can't understand what else I need to do for this to work. Thanks for your help.</p>
