I'm using FFMPEG via the streamio-FFMPEG Rails gem – https://github.com/streamio/streamio-ffmpeg
For some reason, when trying to transcode a video file (that does really exist), FFMPEG says the file does not exist.
Here's some output from the Rails console, demonstrating my headache:
1.9.3p125 :001 > File.exist?("/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/video-app/public/uploads/tmp/20131208-1416-1234-0984/videotest.mp4")
=> true
1.9.3p125 :002 > FFMPEG::Movie.new("/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/video-app/public/uploads/tmp/20131208-1416-1234-0984/videotest.mp4")
Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - ffmpeg -i /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/video-app/public/uploads/tmp/20131208-1416-1234-0984/videotest.mp4

Any help would be appreciated.
