I am having problems downloading the video on the following page:
http://www.ohiochannel.org/MediaLibrary/Media.aspx?fileId=125898&returnTo=Collection

I really only need an audio file so that I can upload it to my transcription software and use my pedal to transcribe about 20 minutes of the video. While I can transcribe at is, it will take me twice as long as it would if I could download the file and use my pedal (the pedal isn't compatible with the site).

Is there an easy way for me to capture the audio from this video and download it to my computer?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Use rtmpdump!!

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://208.108.3.167/vod/" -a "vod/" -W "http://www.ohiochannel.org/JwPlayer/player.swf" -y "mp4:content_files_user/107994/125898.mp4" -o 125898.flv

After downloading the video file, use "FLV Extract" for extracting the audio from the video file! ;)

Take a look below.:p

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://208.108.3.167/vod/" -a "vod/" -f "WIN 10,3,181,34" -W "http://www.ohiochannel.org/JwPlayer/player.swf" -p "http://www.ohiochannel.org/MediaLibrary/Media.aspx?fileId=125898&returnTo=Collection" -y "mp4:content_files_user/107994/125898.mp4" -o Ohio-House-Session.mp4

You are quicker Bahman. ;-)

Thank you so much, Bahman and karlo2105. Unfortunately, I'm very new to this. What do I do with the code? I tried putting it into my browser but nothing happened. Do I have to download something for the code to work?

PS-I have a Mac, OS X 10.5.8

[Bahman]

If you had read my post carefully, you would know what to do!! I said use rtmpdump!!

@Karlo, ;)

Hi
After downloading the video file, use "FLV Extract" for extracting the audio from the video file!
:)

PS-I have a Mac, OS X 10.5.8
:mad:

flvextract is a Windows program.
We need an alternative for Mac.
:cool:

[Bahman]

It was before He/she says That!! :)

I don't have any idea!!

[bat999]

I don't have any idea!!
I don't either.:)

Maybe a Mac fanboi will suggest something.
:cool:
Otherwise, VLC will probably do the job...

Make a new preset:-
Encapsulation MP4/MOV
Video codec none
Audio:- Keep original

Thanks. I can't even get through the rtmpdump step. I tried using version 2.4 and 2.3, but both are giving me error messages. I did a little research and it seems as if rtmpdump has issues running on OS X 10.5. I have zero coding experience. Is there somewhere I can find a version that works with my computer?

This is the error message I get: dyld: unknown required load command 0×80000022

Hi
The sound file is here ---> __https://rapidshare.com/files/3727032976/Ohio_House_Session_Date_06-02-2010.m4a
:cool:

This command was used:-
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://208.108.3.167/vod/" -a "vod/" -W "http://www.ohiochannel.org/JwPlayer/player.swf" -y "mp4:content_files_user/107994/125898.mp4" -v -o - | ffmpeg -i - -vn -c:a copy Ohio_House_Session_Date_06-02-2010.m4a

Thank you bat999! This is perfect!
