A script to download and convert multiple YouTube videos
Authored by: LukeR on Mar 01, '08 10:35:24AM
Yes, in order to get my script to work you need to have wget and ffmpeg installed, but that's easy with Fink or MacPorts. To get better quality of the output avi file, I'd suggest using
ffmpeg -i "${MOVNAME}"'.flv' -ar 48000 -b 500k -vcodec libxvid -acodec libmp3lame "${MOVNAME}"'.avi'
line.

wget, ffmpeg … and seq too : therefor I suggested you alternatives built-in solutions (apart ffmpeg ofc)

and the problem is not to install them: I can't make wget to download the flv (and so your script, to only talk about the download part, doesn't work for me), nor curl without the -L option
