Convert YouTube videos into MP3 files

First of all download the desired video from YouTube.Once you download the FLV, I recommend you move it to the VLC installation folder.

Now open up the command prompt (Start > Run > “cmd” [Enter]). Change the directory to the VLC installation folder using the cd command. Once you’re in the VLC folder (with your .flv in the same folder), enter in the following command and swap in your source name and export MP3 name:

vlc.exe "source.flv" :sout=#transcode {acodec=mp3,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=wav,dst="export.mp3"}} vlc:quit

Try to put all of that code into one big line. Once you hit enter, this command will open VLC, go through the GUI and actually transcode the video to an audio file for you, then it will close VLC. This command is actually just the command-line version of going through the VLC GUI from File > Wizard…

Online Videos beyond You tube ? broadcast yourself

There are several Internet users who upload and download videos from You tube only.Though You tube is the major player in the online video market but there are other players too like meta cafe, Google videos, daily motion, yahoo videos, my space, break, AOL videos, Veoh etc. Don't ignore them just because you are dealing with major player.










Though they have a very little market share but can be very use full for providing the exposure to your video.Though it might seems to be very unusual to some of the users that even after acquiring You tube Google is still running Google videos unlike the yahoo's action to yahoo photos which was closed earlier this year after Yahoo acquired Flickr.







This is different thing, what we are discussing is why should a user not remain limited only up to you tube for online videos. Some of these sites are doing good as well like Google videos has a collection of more than 11000 full length movies which might be surprising for some of the die hard you tube fans.

Internet is all about expanding horizons so don't limit yourself, just expand and broadcast yourself.

Download videos by software in AVI, MPEG, IPOD, PSP compatible formats

In the sequence of posts related to video downloading from Internet.Today i am going to talk about a software rather than a site like the previous posts.It is VDownloader [Download here] which is nearly 3MB in size and can download videos from various but small range of site including you tube, Google ,daily Motion etc.

This is its limitation but the good reason is that it provide the facility of downloading the video in formats like AVI , MPEG and even mp3 only.

What you have to do is to just paste the URL of the desired video in to the bar and select the format in which you want to download video.Now just sit back it download the video in the desired format.

In AVI format you can even select the output size of the video like AVI 320x240,640x480 and
320x240 (which is supposed to be of low quality ,as mentioned in the software)

It can even download video in IPOD and PSP compatible formats you just select it.

I found it very good for use but the only limitation is that it does not support a bunch of sites for downloading videos
