Hi, any knows linux tools to convert flv file to avi or mpg3?
here is the script I found somewhere on the web (and tweaked a bit) which downloads the
video from youtube.com and converts it to .mpg --SCRIPT------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/bash bu="http://youtube.com/get_video.php?"; mkdir -p ~/_download/youTube; cd ~/_download/youTube; read -p "YouTube url? " ur; read -p "Name?
