Re: Outil pour transcrire le flash issu de Youtube, etc.

Merci pour l'info.

J'avais entre-temps découvert youtube-dl (script Python) et vlc (paquets
Debian), qui savent faire aussi.

J'ai programmé un wrapper autour:

-=-=-=

#! /bin/sh

url=$1

if [ "x$url" = "x" ]; then
  echo >&2 "Usage: $0 <YouTube video url or ID>"
  exit 1
fi

# First URL scheme
vid1=`echo $url | sed -e 's|^\(http://\)\?www\.youtube\.com/v/||'`
if [ $url != $vid1 ] ; then
  file=$vid1.flv
else
  # Second URL scheme
  vid2=`echo $url | sed -e
's|^\(http://\)\?www\.youtube\.com/watch?v=||'`
  if [ $url != $vid2 ] ; then
    file=$vid2.flv
  else # no http?
    # Unrecognized URL scheme
    vid3=`echo $url | sed -e 's|^\(http://\)\?www\.youtube\.com||'`
    if [ $url != $vid3 ] ; then
      echo >&2 "FATAL: Unrecognized URL scheme: $url"
      exit 1
    else # Using first URL scheme; TODO auto-detect? How?
      file="$url.flv"
      url="http://www.youtube.com/v/$url";
    fi
  fi
fi

echo URL=$url
echo FILE=$file

cd /tmp
test -e $file || youtube-dl "$url"
test -e $file && vlc $file
cd -
