Normally that error means the video file does not exist or for some reason FFMPEG is denied access to it. Are you trying to encode a video in your Media Library or from a URL? Can you give me the actual link to the video rather than http://myvid.mp4? That would help troubleshooting.

Yes i try with a video in a library and another with url, doesnt work.
Here a valid url: http://62.23.93.90/training/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Couple-3-PUB-NB-21.mp4
Are you able to generate thumbnails? I was able to make thumbnails and encode a 480p H.264 version of that video, so it might be related to your FFMPEG configuration. Can you run FFMPEG from the command line and paste the output here?

It seems like you don’t have libx264 enabled. Usually I would expect to see a number of flags after configuration: For example, on my server I’ve compiled FFMPEG with these options:
configuration: --enable-gpl --enable-libfaac --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libx264 --enable-nonfree
