Sodobni-mediji.si's method worked, but some things need to be clarified.

Download: https://rapidshare.com/#!download|934l34|422916798|php_ffmpeg_v0.6.0_for_PHP_5.3.1.rar

1. unzip
2. copy ffmpeg.exe somewhere and remember the path for later use
3. move php_ffmpeg.dll to php extension dir (usually c:xamppphpext)
4. move all other files to WindowsSystem32 (except COPYING.GPLv3.txt, readme.txt)
5. add extension=php_ffmpeg.dll to php.ini (usually c:xamppphpphp.ini)
6. restart apache with fingers crossed

If you are using windows 64bit, you will also need to to copy all of those dll files to C:WindowsSysWOW64 along with C:WindowsSystem32.

You will probably have problems with toGdImage(), I have no idea how to fix this...
