Hi,

Ross.

ffmpeg

something like this

ffmpeg -i inputfile.flv -vn -acodec copy -y outfile.mp3

Hi, i downloaded ffmpeg and managed to download a .flv copy. i typed in the code (but changed the files obviously) but it didn’t work. it came up with an mp3 file but it’s just like buzzing sort of noise?

any ideas?

thanks again

Let me try one

What format is the file you are downloading?

If you use the ffox addon ‘downloadhelper’ it has a conversion option, you can set a rule for file type A to be automatically converted to file type B

You could also use pytube, which will give you the option of convert .flv into several video formats, but also audio only >ogg, mp3, flac etc.

You need python to run it: pyTube | Download pyTube software for free at SourceForge.net

caf - the file format is .flv and it plays with kaffeine with no problems.

thanks if you can help any more.

i’ll look into that F_sauce thanks :slight_smile:

aha - the FFox plug-in is brilliant!! worked a charm! thanks guys!

Excellent !
