Convert Video Files to MP3

May 25, 2012

A quick word on how to convert a video to MP3. Here’s how I did it. bash 1 ffmpeg -i file_to_convert.flv -f mp3 -ab 192000 -vn new_file.mp3 Obviously, you need to have ffmpeg installed on your system. The options I passed on that line are: -i: input file -f: output format -ab: MP3 bitrate (192 kbps in this case) -vn: do not capture video Simple and fast. Try it out and see for yourself ;) And naturally, if you use this command or manage to improve it somehow, let me know.
