The full Perl Addon can be found here:

The installation is simple and instruction can be found here:

ffmpeg is a different beast and is not included in XAMPP.

I have no use for it but there is lots of info to be found when doing a Google search.

What are you using ffmpeg for - an image Gallery perhaps?

Here is some info from my personal knowledge database on ffmpeg, you will have to sort out what you may need from it and be aware that some of the links may not still be viable.
In XAMPP you will have more chance of Apache executing a binary file if it is contained in the .\xampp\apache\bin directory.


However you can download a pre compiled Windows binary executable file from any of these links:
http://ffdshow.faireal.net/mirror/ffmpeg/
http://arrozcru.no-ip.org/ffmpeg_builds
http://ffdshow.faireal.net/mirror/ffmpeg/
http://www.paehl.com/open_source/?Convert_Tools:FFMPEG
http://oss.netfarm.it/mplayer-win32.php


Other useful links (remember that FFmpeg is primarily for Linux breeds and so some of the links provided in here may only relate to the Linux OS):
http://arrozcru.no-ip.org/ffmpeg_wiki/t ... page=Links
http://www.videohelp.com/tools/ffmpeg
http://arrozcru.no-ip.org/ffmpeg_forum/


There is also a GUI for FFmpeg - download and info can be found here:
http://forum.videohelp.com/topic343287.html


Here is a Google for ffmpeg php extension dll
http://www.google.com/search?q=ffmpeg+php+extension+dll


Unpack the pre-compiled Windows binary ffmpeg.exe file into a directory called ffmpeg in your apache\bin directory.
.\xampp\apache\bin\ffmpeg

Then configure your scripts - in Gallery2 for example - to know where the ffmpeg.exe file is located.

That should keep you busy for a while :)
