How can I compress an uploaded video on my server?

I have to make a simple web page on which user can upload a video (max 10 MB) and the page will compress it (to 5 MB or less) and save it to the server.

I have done the front-end part of the webpage using HTML CSS and javascript.

The user should be able to add a video file and my site should compress it on the server side.

So, How can I compress the uploaded video on my server?

If you wants to reduce video size without loosing much quality, then you can install and use one of the following programs:

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
ffmpeg -i videoS1.mp4 -r 30 -s 960x540 output-compress.mp4

OR

sudo apt-get install mencoder
mencoder input.mp4 -vf scale=720:480 -ovc lavc -o output-compress.mp4

OR

sudo apt-get install libav-tools 
avconv -i input.mp4 -s 640x480 output-compress.mp4

Above all commands/programs can be executed using Server side programming language as it's Linux utilities. You may get libraries for various codec support.
