As most shared hostings providers do not allow you to run **ffmpeg codec**, script comes with one included. Follow these steps to configure it accordingly:
FFPEG codec is needed to merge end results into a single audio file, or to add background music into an audio file etc
1. Make sure you have php `shell_exec` command enabled in your hosting.
As stated in the [requirements](/requirements) section, it is an important feature that must be enabled in your php settings
2. In the root directory of your domain, go to **vendor** -> **ffmpeg** folder.
3. Right click on the **ffmpeg** codec there and select **Change Permission**
4. Change file permission of ffmpeg to be executable by anyone
5. This completes the configuration of ffmpeg codec.
Next, enable the AI Voiceover feature itself.
1. Login to Davinci AI using your admin credentials.
2. In **Admin Panel**, navigate to **AI Settings** -> **General AI Settings** tab.
3. Under **AI Voiceover Settings** section
* Turn on the **AI Voiceover Feature** Checkbox
* Enable/Disable **SSML Effects**, these are additional voice effect features
Please note that not all vendors support each and every SSML effect. SSML effects change dynamically based on the selected voice automatically
* Set **Default Storage for AI Voiceovers** for storing your end results in different storage options. Make sure you configure those cloud storage options first before selecting them.
* Set **Default Language** for all new users that are yet to register. Users can change it afterwards to their preferred ones via **My Accounts** -> **Set Defaults** page.
* Set **Default Voice** for all new users that are yet to register. Users can change it afterwards to their preferred ones via **My Accounts** -> **Set Defaults** page.
* Set **Maximum Total Characters Synthesize Limit** for all of your users, both Free Tier and Subscribers.
Maximum supported characters per single synthesize task can be up to 100000 characters. Each voice (textarea) has a limitation of up to 5000 characters, and you can combine up to 20 voices in a single task (20 voices x 5000 textarea limit = 100000).
* Set **Maximum Concurrent Voices Limit** for all your users, both Free Tier and Subscribers.
You can mix up to 20 different voices in a single synthesize task. Each voice can synthesize up to 5000 characters, total characters can not exceed the limit set by Maximum Characters Synthesize Limit field.
