Use mencoder.

Doh sitting there in front of me :)

For use with YouTube: -------flv2avi-------- #!/bin/bash for i in "$@"; do mencoder -oac pcm -ovc copy "$i" -o "${i%.flv}.avi"; done; ------EOF------- mplayer has problems with audio seeking in FLV files, so a good choice is to convert it to PCM. Reencoding it to MP3 would not be worth the effort (heck, quality already sucks with youtube videos, no need to make it worse). -`J' -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
