FLVto is a web app with three buttons, one input box, and one simple-but-great function of converting YouTube and other Flash-based videos to MP3 audio files. We’ve shared a reader-submitted download-and-convert method, but FLVto makes the process pretty foolproof. Paste a YouTube or other video link (or upload an FLV file), hit “OK,” then wait for your download prompt. The sound quality is only as good as the video’s (as in mono sound, 60 kbps on one sample download), but with more videos going up in higher-resolution, stereo-sound formats, that could improve—assuming this app stays up and running. FLVto is free to use and doesn’t require a sign-up.
User comment: Comment from vmspionageI made a very similar asp.net web app a few weeks ago on a tip from a friend that there was no easy way to rip and crop youtube videos for cell phone ringtones. I made the part that downloads the flv, extracts audio to mp3 (mediahandler/ffmpeg), started on a flash mp3 cropping tool then I lost interest. It’s only about 5kb of code if anyone wants it but I wouldn’t call it “quality code”, it is made out of boredom and fail.
User comment: Comment from metalhazeI have two Adobe Air apps that is even better than this method.
1. AirTube - For downloading YouTube videos directly to your desktop in FLV format. [theflashblog.com]
2. RichFLV - For converting the FLV to other formats and also for extracting the mp3 file.
